Day 12: Watch a Christmas movie.
Adam had a work event to go to so it was the perfect night for Christmas pj's and snuggling up on the couch for a girls night watching a movie. We watched Saving Santa, which was really cute although a little over their heads. It was so nice to spend some sweet time with these precious girls!
Day 13: Give a gift
We have been trying to talk with the girls about the real meaning of Christmas. It's fun to get new toys and clothes, but it's also a time to give. We give to people that don't have as much because we need to share our blessings and we give to family and friends to show them how much we love them. This was the perfect night to give something to some very special friends.
Some of the greatest blessings in our lives are our friends. We are so fortunate to have made great friends in college, law school, church. work, and "mommy" friends. Each year we have a special dinner with some wonderful law school friends. This year was extra fun because Holly and Brad are engaged!!! We are so happy for them and cannot wait for their special day next fall. We decided to give them a beautiful ornament to hang on their tree. While Caroline was totally on board with giving the gift, she was not about to let them open it...
Day 14: Make SNOW!!
Thanks to Pinterest we found a fun (albeit very messy) activity for this weekend. We made snow! It was so easy and so much fun. Caroline kept saying, "This is the best day ever!!" It was adorable and was totally worth the giant mess that we made.
