Christmas traditions

I got the kids an advent calendar this year and then Mike and I got to talking about the traditions we both did as kids at Christmas.  I remembered doing an advent calendar with candy and making Christmas cookies.  Mike's Mom made a  felt tree with felt oranments that the kids took turn putting on the tree.  We asked her about it and she sent it to us!

Here is the felt Christmas tree from Mike's childhood


I filled this countdown calendar with 2 candies each day for the kiddos each morning

here is the advent calendar I got the kiddos and then Aunt Jes and Uncle Brian got them each one too!  They had lots of candy each morning in December!
We also made Christmas cookies with everyone one afternoon!
