For the first time ever, the kids were in school the entire week leading up to Christmas. This left us little time during the week to do festive things to make it feel Christmasy. Luckily, Emmy had a fun week planned.
The sixth and seventh graders went on a Christmas Crusade field trip on Monday to do random acts of kindness around town. I got to tag along and it was lots of fun.
She got out early all week, so we watched Christmas movies afterschool most days.
She went home with a friend on Wednesday and her friend group did a secret Santa exchange and the mom hosted a fun party for them.
We had our neighborhood Christmas party on Thursday. We were missing one of our OG families.
I took Bryce and his girlfriend ice skating on Friday night. Bryce was SO glad to finally be out of school.
I made sure we did all of the festive things today. We had green Christmas tree waffles and then we decorated cookies!
They each did fewer cookies than normal, but I had plenty of fun decorating the leftovers.
They left A LOT for me!
It's hard to believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve!
