As you may have read on an earlier posting, the girls and I are trying to do a different Christmas activity each day this month. We actually started early and evidently I did not pick out enough stuff for them to do because they keep asking, "What are we doing next!?"
So far we have made Cinnamon Ornaments, decorated the tree, made a Christmas Town out of boxes we would normally recycle, and made our own (frugal) decorative soap! For the soap all we did was grate a bar of soap - please use caution as I almost grated the tip of my finger off! :( Then we added 1/4 of water, stirred it well and pressed the mixture, tightly, into cookie cutters. Oh yeah, be sure to do this on waxed paper or cling wrap. It is not too messy and cleans up with water, it already has soap.
We are looking forward to many more activities and hope to add "Playing in the Snow" to our list as it is flurrying right now!
Today we will be letting the girls each pick out an ornament to buy. Casey wants one with a camera or at least a Christmas photo frame since she is so into photography this year. Only Cody knows which one she will choose this year!
Looking forward to posting new pictures tomorrow!
