Christmas Traditions


Jake and I have a Christmas Tradition that we adopted from his family. Every year we do the 12 days of Christmas. Each night we do a fun activity. We right on our message board every morning what the activity will be. For instance today we went to the Mall and saw Santa and rode the Christmas Train. Then Luke had a full melt down and we promptly left-but that is beside the point-right?

For the most part it has been really fun this year because we could finally pick activities that we could really involve him in. For example for the first day we made Christmas candy trains. It was SOOO fun. I loved doing this with Luke. He was so fun. Suprisingly he didn't even eat that much. He was mostly interested in gluing stuff on with the icing. He loved it so much that he had to make another one the next day-the novelty of it had worn off a little then and that time it was more of an excuse to eat candy. But nevertheless-so fun.

That is such a cute photo! Wish you were closer, my kids want to do gingerbread houses SO bad and I keep saying no--at least until some other baking is done!
