Magic of December

December is here!  Our house is lit up, tree shopping ensues tomorrow, Christmas music is blasting and our first viewing of Christmas Vacation has happened!  But, more importantly our faithful Scout Elf Olaf has returned.

This year Olaf will be bringing a treat each day to the pipsqueaks.  In an attempt to avoid just candy, we have paired a classic Christmas movie and treat with a fun holiday activity each day.

We kicked off December 1st with our annual Snowflake Breakfast and a super fun sleepover.  Today's movie was supposed to be "The Santa Clause" which is one of my all time favorites, but the excitement of a slumber party was just too much for the boys to sit and watch a movie...they did, however, enjoy their DQ Blizzards!!  And if we are being honest here, I'm enjoying a break from the normal nightly crazy!


For our annual Snowflake Breakfast Olaf brought donuts and hot coco.  He added in a traditional chocolate-a-day advent calendar AND  Lego/Tsum Tsum Advent Calendars.  I think the boys were so excited to get to open the first daily prize.  Ethan built the Christmas Train, Carter built a spaceship (his Lego Calendar is Star Wars Christmas), and Daxton's first Tsum Tsum was Joy from "Inside Out."


Since the boys were having so much with their friend over, Trevor and I decided to kick off December and close out our jam packed week with our first of many viewings of "Christmas Vacation"!


Tomorrow Olaf will be bringing each boy $5 to shop at Santaland, as well as a fun movie night complete with a themed treat!  It truly is the happiest time of the year and these boys are lucky they are so good...or maybe that we are so forgiving =)
