Some of This

Would you like to see some of this around your home?


...and some of this?...

Then get yourself one of these...

I have been looking for an advent calendar/list of activities to count down for Christmas this year (has anyone seen anything like that??), and I came across this advent puzzle through sugardoodle. And since it's been hanging on the wall, the kids have done dishes, vacuumed the floor, written a secret note and hidden it in a pajama drawer, called Grandma to ask about her Christmas when she was younger, ding-dong-ditched some cookies to a neighbor, and when asked about a time that Heavenly Father answered their prayers, answered, "Every time!"

Nothing against those paper chains, but I think this is a much more thought-provoking way to prepare for Christmas.
