I decided to use the Advent calendar that my Grandma Charlene made me as a kid this year with Lauren & Ben.
It has been really fun reliving the memories. Some of the cards she made were still in the pockets. Each day the kids have to do a little chore (we're talking easy things like "make a Christmas card" or "pick up your books") and then they get to unwrap a gift. It has been amazing to see Lauren work so hard at cleaning up! Of course Ben doesn't have much to do because he usually picks his things up before he goes to bed at night.
The first day they got new jammies!
They are going to think January is pretty darn boring when they no longer get gifts every day.
