Advent

Last year I talked about what we did for Advent. To see what I wrote about last year, you can go here. This year were going to do something very similar. It went so well that I thought that we should keep to what we did. The girls had a blast and Nate and I loved doing fun stuff to make the holidays seems enjoyable and not so rushed. Here's the list for this year:
