ReplyDeleteWe were down in your 'neck of the woods' over Christmas and caught a flight of Christmas day - much cheaper! It was a busy December for us :)
ReplyDeleteWe had a fun holiday season visiting family, going to the zoo (our zoo puts up Christmas lights everywhere, and it's gorgeous - worth taking a toddler out past bedtime, even!) and the aquarium and the children's museum, and enjoying our activity-based advent calendar!
ReplyDeleteHey Lauren....your Xmas activities are inspirational. We did very similar activities. Love filling our advent calendar on a nightly basis with an activity to do the following day. We also introduced Alfie, our Elf on the Shelf last year and both kiddies loved searching for him every morning to see what mischief he'd got up to overnight and where he was hiding.
