Is it just me, or are things sneaking up on you too?
Like November, for instance?
The kids and I snuck out one afternoon to head to the Dollar store to purchase our shoe boxes.
It is so fun to select gifts for these shoe boxes!
We bought a box for Kayla too, and then a couple of nights later we all got together to pack the boxes and make cards to send inside them as well.
We never need a reason to be all together, but it was fun to have a project to work on!
I helped Tate while Blake helped Eliza.
Someone’s box got sent without a pink slinky!
But this blond hair blue-eyed boy is pretty hard to resist.
Ellie Joy sang to us while we worked!
I know, I know.
I will kiss her for you.
Your welcome!
We had dinner together before we packed the shoe boxes, and then we played a lot too.
I am sure I do not need to mention who the biggest kid is?
This tradition and our cookie baking tradition are two of my favorite things to do all year long!
I never have to be reminded to schedule these things to make sure they get done…but I know some kiddos who would never let me forget!
We are so excited for the Christmas season!!
It is just full of SO MUCH JOY!!
Christmas time kick-off, you were a success!
