Decorating the Tree!!

Last week we went tree shopping and came home to decorate our house. Yay! We got the prettiest tree and both girls really enjoyed hanging up all the decorations. We also made our own advent calendar by handing 24 little mittens from our mantle. We filled each mitten with a scripture + the girls (well, just Sara this year) brainstormed 24 nice things to do + candy. Each day we move the baby Jesus to the next mitten, read the scripture, do our nice deed and then enjoy some Smarties. I hope we can make this a little tradition and do it again next year.
