Is it Christmas Day?

Needless to say the kids were a little anxious about Christmas. Ever since we put up the Christmas decorations after Thanksgiving, Bo would wake up every day asking if it was Christmas day or he would look outside to see if it snowed because that would mean it was Christmas. For some reason he had that in his head that Santa would bring snow on Christmas. Mommy spent a lot of time creating a advent calendar to give visual cues on how many days (count down) until Christmas.

We also did a new thing this year where we wrapped up Christmas books for the 18 or so days until Christmas. So each day Emmy and Bo would fight over who was going to open the book present for the night before bedtime. Then we would read it and go to bed. Somehow we ended up a little light and finished before actual Christmas day so the kids thought the next day would be Christmas. Having said all of this, they were stuck inside the house because it was cold outside the weekend before Christmas.

They were running out of things to do so they decided to create their own game and her is the video of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNRBJ_oRyc0
