Pre-Christmas activities!

I love the Christmas season and all that goes with it. The wrapping paper, the lights, the crafts, the shopping! The only thing I don't really love is the snow... I know I know it wouldnt be Christmas without snow. And that is how I use to think, but times are different now. But even though I don't care for the snow, there is a little boy in this house that sure does!

 LOVES it!

 

His favourite thing to do is clean off the car!

 

On the days that are too cold we bring it inside

Meet Mr. Snowman. In the sun he melted small, small, small.

So we put him in the freezer... how do you feel about that Mr. Snowman?

 

This year I had a lot of fun wrapping gifts. It's all about a pretty package!

You can find the tutorial to this crafty toothpick star HERE

I think the site is in German or something... so you have to figure it out just by the pictures!

I even had fun decorating the envelopes for our Christmas cards. I am officially in LOVE with washi tape! You can find it on ETSY or in Lethbridge at SPLURGE

Why do my boys get so messy when painting?

I guess it's a good thing I took his shirt off...or maybe I should have left it on!
