New Family Traditions



This is the first year we started the Advent calendar with Kennedy. Every morning is a new inexpensive prize to retrieve from the door. We put a few different chapsticks in, a couple of small ornaments, a few chocolates, sillybands, stickers, erasers and I even filled a couple of days full of balls for her reward jar. She looks forward to it every single morning. First, she turns on our Christmas tree... then heads right for her 'daily door'. We have so much fun together!

We also made our very first gingerbread house this year! Jon did the brunt of the work, while Kennedy and I added all the candies. They were so cute together, going back and forth suggesting different candies for certain areas of the house. They did an awesome job together! Starting new family traditions are so much fun! :)
