2013 advent calendar

Our advent calendar went so well last year that we continued the tradition of putting little notes in each of the boxes and making it about doing something together rather than what-do-I-get. Sometimes, it's extra work thinking of or squeezing in an activity when I'm swamped with all the other hustle and bustle of the holidays but I love this and hope to continue it for years to come.
So every morning in our house Addie and Liam eagerly look for their elf and then get to open a box to read a new message with the day's activity. Here's what we've been up to this December as we count down to Christmas! (We got started a little late since Thanksgiving ran so late and we were up in Oregon.)

What a wonderful tradition to do with the kids.
