It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in our house. It all started early this month when we went to get our Christmas tree...




We found the one within a few minutes of being there.


The kiddos were pretty excited about picking out their "Chrih-ma tree".





Once we got the lights on the tree, I followed our tradition by putting two presents under the tree.


In them were their new...

Christmas jammies.


I love seeing kiddos in Christmas pajamas!




We decorated the tree.


We posed in our new jammies.


We had meltdowns.


We drank eggnog and had cookies.





And by the end of the night, after we evened out the low-hanging ornaments, we had this...


The stockings are hung.


And the kids' little trees are lit beside their beds.


We are also working through our advent calendar. I printed out these free kid-oriented advent verses.


And the kids are counting down the days (or at least the days we remember to do this) with these guys that I found in the dollar spot at Target.


We also have our favorite Christmas books out and are enjoying old faves and new finds...


And our Advent candles are lit.


Loving this December and looking forward to Christmas celebrations with our families!
