This activity randomly came to me and the kids loved it. We usually have pancakes or waffles on Saturday mornings so what's more fun for kids than using Christmas cookie cutters to make their pancakes look like Christmas.

Advent Day 9
Attend Elyse's Winter Dance Recital
Tonight we had the opportunity to go watch Elyse dance her three dances beautifully on stage. We were all so proud of her; especially the boys as they happily gave their pictures and boutiques to her.

Advent Day 8
Celebrate Dad's Birthday
Today we celebrated Dad (Nate). We made cards for him, bagged and watched him open the presents they picked out, baked his cake of choice (brownies), and gave him lots of love. No one we rather celebrate today than Dad. Happy birthday, love!

Advent Day 7
Shop and Donate Food to Local Food Shelf
The kids did another donation activity today, I really do love when they joyfully shop for others. I showed them a list of food items they could pick out and buy for others who do not have the ability to buy food on their own. We then drove to our local shelter and they handed it over to the friendly staff with excitement and questions. The ladies answered their questions and showed them around. They really got into this activity today, so much that they asked if they could just donate food anytime of the year, "You bet", was my reply!

Advent Day 5
Donate to "Toys for Joy"
Today the kids participated in "Toys for Joy" which is very similar to "Toys for Tots" but it's put on by their school. They picked out some great toys and then once again joyfully donated them to children in need. Can't get enough of doing things like this during this time of year!
