Advent Day 1!

This year, we are starting a new holiday tradition- an Advent calendar. I found one last year on clearance at the bullseye when my Mom and I went day-after-Christmas shopping. It's a pretty silver box with shiny numbered doors and it's going to bring a lot of fun to our December, I've already decided. So, Bryan and I are taking turns each day and putting a surprise behind every door to be opened each morning. I'm odd days, he's even, we share the 25th. So, this morning Bryan and Cooper opened the first door and found 3 snowflakes and a little note that explained that we would be kissing under mistletoe today. Well, Cooper feel asleep in the car on the way home, so he'll get his kiss tomorrow. But, here's a pic of his parents sharing a Christmas kiss...


Happy December! And HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

    This is a great idea, and it's something we've been talking about too. Simon's definitely old enough to be excited about christmas, but not really old enough to understand "it's a few weeks from now." We've got a Lego one around here somewhere, but we've been meaning to get one that's a little more festive.
