Day 13

Today we decided to create a new activity that wasn't in the jar. Since there was no preschool, we decided to enjoy the surprise!

Play in the snow


Throwing snowballs


Cheesy boy


Such a big helper!


He said he was making a choo-choo train


Snowball fight!

Day 12

We did Day 11 and 12 on the same day. We messed up somewhere (maybe Friday).

Make a snowman


Working hard on our snowman


Mommy does the glue


During this activity, he decided to try a new trick


Caught in the act!


Tada! And being silly.

Day 11

Not sure why I didn't take a picture of us reading the story. Probably because Mommy and Daddy stayed out until almost 3am the night before. We still had fun and he was very excited to drink hot chocolate.

Drink hot chocolate and read the real Christmas story



Yum!

Day 10

Please forgive me for my lack of blogging. I will get better at keeping up with this.

Make a Christmas ring wreath


The boys decided to make a chain of rings around the tree instead of a wreath. They turned out great!

Day 9

I had to work last night, so the boys ate pizza, popcorn, and watched The Polar Express. Not really sure where the obsession with choo-choo trains came from, but he loves them.

Pizza, popcorn, and Christmas movie

Day 8

Today's activity was another great craft. We gathered the pine cones from Pepa and Mema's house because we don't have any. Callum decided to paint his Christmas tree pine cone many different colors-green, blue, yellow. He wanted to wait until Daddy got home to paint, so they had a great time together while Mommy cleaned:)

He's a pro at painting.


Daddy probably said something really funny.


Really, really funny
