December 7th

We had to start our advent activities a little late this year since we were gone for the first week of the month, but better late than never! My mom made us this adorable advent calendar/display/decoration. I put a slip of paper into each stocking with an activity for us to do that day.


Yesterday was Grinch day. We started off the morning with green waffles. Then we had "Grunch" instead of lunch--green mac and cheese (it looked unappetizing to me, but the kids ate it.) After Lincoln's nap we watched the original movie and read the book together. The kids posed for a picture to help us always remember the day (it seems as if my girls are home, they are perpetually dressed up in some sort of costume--Chloe is being Cleopatra here.)
More fun to come! (And I'll get to blogging Disneyland soon...)
