Aloha!!!!
I can’t believe Christmas is about to be here!! I’ve been so wrapped up with the holiday season, and then a week of sickness in our house (my youngest missed 5 days of school because she had the flu! 104 temps are no fun at all!!)
But, I didn’t want to leave you hanging on our Advent calendar, because we have been having so much fun!!!! So, without further adieu, here is our week 2 of our Advent Calendar 2017!
Day 8 and 9- Staycation at Disney’s Aulani!!
Every year for the Advent calendar we do one big thing! This year, as our first year in Hawaii, it had to be Aulani!!! It was a beautiful weekend, and we relaxed, ate all the Mickey Shaped things, had breakfast with the characters, and just really had a blast of a time!
Day 10- Baking Night- Peanut Butter Blossoms
Peanut Butter Blossoms are our favorite!!
Day 11- Leave Treats for Postal Workers
Day 12- Craft Night-
For the past 6 or so years, we have tried it hardest to put together a gingerbread house! And every year,
We fail! Laughable!
I thought this year Starbucks would give us some luck.
All was going well,
Until it was time to put it together!!
We continue to be 0-6!
Day 13- Movie Night!
We are big fans of Home Alone, as you saw it in my Friday Fives Favorite Christmas Movies post, so tonight was a Home Alone Marathon, topped with White Chocolate Peppermint Popcorn and Candy Cane Hot Chocolate!
Day 14- Sleepover in the Living Room!
Now, my girls love this one! Sleeping “under” the tree with the Christmas Lights twinkling! I always try to get them to go on the couch, but they love the floor! My old mommy back can’t handle it!
That’s it for this week! Are you loving our activities? I hope you can implement them in your holiday traditions too!
