great ideas. This makes me want to do this. I may copy some too. :) Sisi is dying to see tangled too.
Good list, sounds fun. I remember those busy, fun days with the magic of little ones at Christmas time. I love the movies, the crafts, the baking. Have fun with those cute elves at your house!
Where are you going to see the Pieta?
Another fun list! We are going to have to leave some fun stuff up to Grandma Bobbi this weekend but then there will be lots of activities when I get back.
I'm definitely going to copy some of these. Porter is soo excited for Christmas and it makes me soo excited. Christmas is so fun with little ones!
I was totally channeling you. Seriously, I'm sitting here with a notebook trying to come up with activity ideas to put in my new advent calendar. I had 5 written down when I checked your blog! Genius. Just call me copy cat! (or smart...either one) Thank you, great ideas I never even knew existed!
