Advent

I wanted an advent calendar this year. Originally I wanted to make one like my mom's, with a huge felt tree and an ornament to velcro on each day. Well guess what, that didn't happen. Maybe next year. So it ended up like this:

 Each day has some activity-ish thing on it. Here's what we've got (starting this Tuesday):

6. Make double chocolate cookies

7. Ward Christmas Party

8. Make frozen hot chocolate

9. Make gingerbread houses

10. Go to Gardner Village

Sunday 11. Watch Elf

12. Eat peppermint ice cream

13. Make paper snowflakes

14. Nice notes

15. SKY WORKS – paint toes Christmas colors

16. Go to Jon Schmidt

17. Go to Salt Lake to see the lights

Sunday 18. Read the Christmas story in Luke 2

19. Spencer & Michelle’s party

20. Go to PF Changs

21. Michelle’s bridal shower

22. Go to Riverwoods           

23. Make a snowman

24. Christmas Eve party

Why frozen hot chocolate, you ask? BECAUSE I WANT IT. And what are nice notes? I really have no idea. I made them up. Well I made the name up. What they actually consist of is "under construction." Does anyone know what nice notes are and can explain them to me before the 14th? Thanks. And if you're curious who Michelle is, she and my brother are getting married or something. Or something. 

What great things are you doing this month?
