Advent - Day 9

Day 9 was a trip to Chickfila for their holiday peppermint chocolate chip milkshakes. I forgot to take pictures- oops.

Advent - Day 8

Day 8 found us taking a trip downtown to Macy's to mail the letters to Santa in his special mailbox.

And a brief stop to see the "Snow in the City" setup where a machine blew tiny bubbles that look like snow falling. Oh, what we won't do for snow in southeast Texas!

I saw how to make these cute "trees" online somewhere using Ferrero Rocher candies, pipe cleaners and stars.

Advent - Day 6

Bake a yummy holiday treat.

These chocolate-covered cake balls turned out to be too sweet for even me to eat- that is really saying something. The rest of my family seems to have no such problem...

Advent - Day 5

Today's Advent calendar find was a beaded snowflake ornament craft kit that we never got around to doing. Between church, choir, birthday party, shopping, wrapping...the time never presented itself so here are a couple of pictures I did snap today.
