Christmas activites

We got the idea from a friend to make a paper chain to count down the days until Christmas. Of course, it was mid-December by the time we got this idea, so instead of doing all 25 days of Dec, we made our chain from Dec. 13 - 25. 12 Days of Christmas. Each day on the chain has a Christmas activity for Austin to do.

1. Make a Christmas Tree craft with Auntie Shandra
2. Go to Grandma and Grandpa Hawkins' ward Christmas party
3. Make a Fruit Loop chain for the Christmas tree
4. Finish putting up Christmas decorations
5. Help wrap Christmas presents
6. Make Christmas cookies
7. Make snowmen out of marshmallows & Santas out of graham crackers.
8. Drive around town to look at Christmas lights
9. Make Gingerbread house
10. Watch Christmas movie as a family
11. Read Twas The Night Before Christmas & put out cookies for Santa and carrots for reindeer
12. Read about the birth of Jesus in the Bible

Austin did a great job making his Gingerbread house!
