We put up the Christmas tree last week and Cole was really helpful this year! We did it while rocking out to the Raffi Christmas album that my mom gave to us for Christmas last year (or was it two years ago?)
This year my mom's Christmas gift to us was the cutest wooden advent calendar that Cole looooves to play with. She even provided the German chocolates to put into each wooden drawer and they are delicious! I probably should have taken a picture of the chocolate santa that came in the same package but that got eaten about 2 minutes after opening the box :/ So yummy.
It's safe to say that I miss Germany, especially at Christmas-time but at least we have an advent calendar from Germany in the house now. Thanks for sending it, mom. It is the perfect gift!
These pictures are adorable, Lu! And mom is amazing for making us all an advent calendar! We love ours over here too. And those chocolates really are to die for. Yum.
