December 14 - Go out to dinner and shopping for gifts for your siblings
We didn't take a picture on this day but the kids opened their gifts from each other on Christmas Eve this year. Carter got a Harry Potter Lego set, Makenna got a lip gloss set and Addie got a Rapunzel doll.
December 15 - Write a letter Santa Claus
Carter asked for Super Mario Bros Wii game, Hogwarts Castle and an iPod. Makenna asked for a real puppy, spy goggles and American Girl baking center. Unfortunately for Kenna, there was no puppy this year but she did get everything else she asked for. Addie just wanted Princess Barbies, which she also got!
December 16 - Wrap teacher gifts
December 17 - Watch Santa Paws with your friends (default since we hosted a couples only Christmas party this night and the kids were babysat at a friends house!)
December 18 - Make a homemade ornament
I let the kids pick out their ribbons, I did most of the sewing, they stuffed their trees themselves and I helped the older kids embroider their names and year on the back. We also made a 2nd ornament of their handprints on large balls that we turned into snowmen. Adorable!
December 19 - Make cookies for neighbors
December 20 - Deliver Neighbor Gifts
December 21 - Have Snowman Day - make snowman pancakes and cookies
December 22 - Go see a movie with mom - we saw Despicable Me AGAIN at the dollar theater. The kids LOVE that movie (good thing we purchased it for Christmas)
