This year our 24 days of Christmas started early. Last Sunday we went to see the lights at the Mesa Temple with Jason's brother. It was Wyatt's first Temple Lights visit and he was enthralled. Wait until he sees Temple Square in Salt Lake in a few weeks. He will be in heaven! It was the best way to kick off our Christmas season to feel the Spirit of the true meaning of Christmas.
I saw on a friend's blog that she was going to do something fun every day with her son. So, I'm a copycat and decided that we are doing that too. Here is the list of things we have planned for the rest of December:
1- Set up Nativity- talk about true meaning of Christmas
2- Sing carols around the tree with guitar
3- Walk around the mall and window shop
4- Jason’s Work Christmas Party
5- send Christmas cards out
6- Drive around and look at Christmas lights (we do this every Sunday in December...a tradition started back when Jason and I got married)
7- Ornament FHE
8-Hang mistletoe and kiss
9-Donate food to food bank or secret santa
10-Make treats for neighbors
11-Christmas movie with popcorn/hot chocolate
12-Picture with Santa
13-Drive around and look at Christmas lights
14-Watch Christmas movie for FHE or read Christmas story

That is a fun list! I love some of the ideas on there and will probably steal a few of them...:)
What a cute idea! I'm still in the mind set of "Emma won't know the difference..." - but she'll probably be 15 and I'll still be saying that, so I should probably get off my rump and do something. :) Anyway, congrats on the AWESOME Turkey Trot and success with Race Day. I'm really proud of you.
Dude! At least you could shout out your friend who you stole them from!
