14 Days Until Christmas

 14 Days Until Christmas...

I wanted more face to face service ideas for this countdown this year now that she's a little older and man it's been so wonderful, let me tell you. This adorable girl of mine, what a gem! Love her to pieces...she's amazing and fun and creative and kind and so many wonderful things and all these positives to her personality seem to really shine in moments like these ones tonight....what a sweetheart!

"MAKE A SNOWMAN CRAFT FROM A CHOCOLATE BAR, WHITE WRAPPING PAPER AND CRAFT MATERIALS THEN PICK AN ELDERLY COUPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO TAKE THEM TO."

 Don't Ask...haha, either about the sticking out tongues or the crappy photos...whatever...the memories are still the same...even if this pic is creepy of me. 

 Our finished Snowmen masterpieces...

 We love these sweet neighbors but haven't taken near as many of the opportunities we've thought about to visit them. This was the perfect chance! We had such a nice visit. These two amazing people are some of our favorites. D. goes way back as buddies with Mont's grandpa and he shared a few great and touching stories with us during our visit. I love these two so much and I was so glad we got to visit like we did. And that we got to help out by going home to make two more for their missionary grandson's package that goes off tomorrow. Cutest thing ever was the tour Kinlee gave to E. when she dropped by to tell me not to worry about making those for her...I finished up the snow men treats/crafts while Kinlee gave the grand tour of our new place. It was honestly among one of the cutest things of the day listening to her lead sweet E around our house and explaining the rooms and excitedly talking about the things she knows we love about it, and that she loves. I love that girl! And I think this was definitely one of our favourite countdown days so far this year.
