Closing in on the Countdown

The advent calendar was a HUGE hit with our guys...they alternated days and did a great job of cheering each other on for the big reveal. The excitement of the month has been non-stop. They can barely contain themselves. I guess the fact that I did let Van eat a Reindeer Peep for breakfast this week probably didn't help with the frenzy! It's such a treat to see their joy at the smallest of holiday details-the sprinkles on the cookies, the Christmas shaped marshmallows, the ribbons, the reindeer ears and the Santa hats...I don't want it to end but I can hardly stand the build up to the big day either. Counting down with them and loving every minute of it! Hope everyone has a holiday this blessed!!
