I decided today that we needed an Advent calendar to help our family count down to Christmas. And since we have an overabundance of unmatched socks, I decided to use them. (Incidentally, I found a match. Check out #6 and #24! :)
And This is what we will be doing:
1. Put up Christmas decorations and eat a candy cane!
2. Go to the Library and check out Holiday Stories.
3. Go see Santa and ride in a Cinderella carriage at the Old Towne Mall.
