December 1st: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

Last year, I started doing some Christmas activity every day until Christmas and had so much fun doing it. It was a good way to stay in the Christmas spirit and also serve others.

I wanted to find an advent calendar with little doors I could put in each one a treat and a paper that said what we were going to do that day. I found the perfect thing!! Shopko, $10!! I know right?! Plus, Kylee loves that it is a train.

She loved opening the first door to see what was inside.

She was pretty excited about the tootsie roll! She kept saying, "Tootsie! Tootsie!"

She noticed the paper inside and opened it up to see what it was. It said "Watch Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Pop Popcorn". (Making popcorn in our air popper is one of her favorite things.)

She sat and watched the whole movie!! Whenever the abominable snowman came on she'd say, "Ohhh, scary!". I have to say, I love having a DVR! I went through the guide for the next week or two and set all the Christmas shows to record. So convenient!

She sat and ate popcorn without taking her eyes off the tv the whole time. I'm pretty sure we each ate the same amount too!!
