Countdown to Christmas . . . Show us ♥ YOUR ♥ Week!

December is finally upon us. Can you believe it?!We've had a fun {albeit a little chaotic} first week, how about y'all?I'm going to try to organize my thoughts by day {though I'm feeling soooo unorganized lately}

Here we go!

{I've included links to the tutorials for our activities ~ excluding decorating the Christmas tree, of course.}

Hershey's Kiss Advent Calendar

The girls had such fun making this. And it truly was a project that they could do {mostly} on their own. Makenna is still learning to tie a bow, but she lined up the kisses just so, and attached the yarn and numbers. Sierra didn't need any help at all, Miss Independent! :)

Decorating the Tree!

Each year is more fun and exciting. Jeremy brought the tree in for us, I strung the lights, and the girls decorated the entire tree themselves {with the exception of a few that I placed on the highest branches, of course}. Kam and I got to sit back and watch. And I think it turned out beautifully!

Time got away from us a bit while we were working on the hair clips. I'm not great with the glue ;) But we had so much fun! Makenna made two clips {she got a little side-tracked}, and Sierra got 4 done {she made one to give to her cousin}. Even I managed to get a few made before Kam woke up!

Snowflake Decorations

Today we will be making our snowflake decorations. I cut out "snowflakes" from white craft foam. I have rhinestones and sequins the girls can use to decorate, and then we will hang them from the ceiling in their room. I'll let you know how it turns out! :)

How about you? What have you been up to? I can't wait to get more ideas for fun holiday projects. Share in the fun, and link up, whydon'tcha?!
