Ever since we thought about having children, I was always excited at the thought of Christmas with our future children. Now that we have the girls, I am even more excited about Christmas with them.
We have been checking things off our bucket list and I can't wait to share even more of our traditions with them.
Here is our update to our Christmas Bucket List:
1.
2. Santa Train or the Polar Express Train
3.
We went tree cutting the day after Thanksgiving and found the most perfectly imperfect tree.
4.
5.
7. Elf on the Shelf
This is a sort of one. We have moved the Elf around, but the girls are not that interested in him. Maybe next year.
8. New PJs on Christmas Eve
9.
I have been watching a ton of them. The girls and I watched a Charlie Brown Christmas and they have been enjoying the Hallmark movies with me. Ok, maybe not enjoying them, but they cuddle me while I watch them. We plan to watch the Grinch this weekend and maybe Elf.
10. New Christmas Ornaments
11. Christmas Eve Party
12.
13. Homemade Cinnamon Rolls for Christmas Morning
14. Host Christmas Dinner
So far we are 7 1/2 out of 14. I am happy we have done that much. I figured we would only get half done.
The girls have been wearing a lot of wintery pjs and even their Christmasy ones a few times.
Avery was none to pleased to take a photo for me
Sutton loved posing for me

I tried to get more photos of them last night and this is all they would give me.

Great job on your bucket list!! You guys are having a great month so far with all the fun. Love the girl's jammies. So adorable!!
ReplyDeleteLook at you guys crossing things off! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteSo many fun things you guys are doing! I also make homemade cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning and that's the one thing Brayden said he's looking forward to!
ReplyDeleteYou guys have had such a festive month! We haven't done the Christmas lights yet, but I think we are going to this weekend. We are finally going to turn Ben's car seat around and let him look at the lights. The girls in their jammies...OMG, so sweet! And, I can't get over that Santa photo!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the year without the Elf on the SHelf... hearing others talk about it, it gets REALLY OLD after a few years. You'll have plenty of time to work with that ;)
ReplyDelete"perfectly imperfect tree" - I love that :)
What fun things you have planned with your family! My cousin did the polar express train with her family and said the kids loved it!! Also, that Santa photo is priceless... you need to send it to the Ellen show!
ReplyDeleteI did send it to the Ellen show last night. I had to. It is a good one. I love all the family time and things we do in December.
DeleteMore than half way done! What a great list! I miss advent calendars in my life. I still cannot get over their Santa pic, so funny!
ReplyDeleteYou guys have done so many things! I need to look at our list and make sure that we're on track to get everything done... we're running out of time!
ReplyDeleteI love your bucket list graphic! Ive got to get on my list I think we've only done 4 things so far and the month is half over :/
ReplyDeleteI love your bucket list and all the pictures. Your girls look so cute in their pjs!
