1. Watch all our Christmas DVD's

2. Make a gingerbread house

3. Make a garland of popcorn and cranberries

*this is one i do every year for the kids. Someday they'll have their own little stash of ornaments when they get married and have their own trees

5. Hang mom's crocheted snowflakes downstairs.
*We used to do this every year in the old house but since being in the new house, it's been a bit harder.

6. Make our favorite Christmas cookies

7. Read the Christmas Story with the kids

8. Enjoy hot chocolate with the kids

(they are bought... now just waiting for Christmas Eve!)

10. Eat a pomegranate

11. Watch the light parade
