The countdown has begun! We've made paper chains for counting down the days til Christmas, although Jude wants to save his to put on the tree. The kids have a box of little chocolates and each day they get to eat one piece til Christmas. We also have a big advent calendar that we use, and lastly,
Lila and I made this cute craft that counts down the days.

It seems like a lot, but it really isn't that much, and it helps to brighten our mornings in December!
