Christmas Fun

I saw this cute idea on Pinterest where a basket is filled with 24 same gifts/activities. I decided to do that with our girls.

Some how my notes got in the wrong envelope or I doubled up but today we are making a treat not cookies. We will be baking Self-Frosting Nutella cupcakes. I can’t wait to try them.

Day 5

The girls unwrapped Madagascar Christmas, the movie, as their gift today. They watched it instead of cartoons this morning.

Day 6

Make a snowman! Using our pumpkins from Halloween.
