{Countdown to Christmas}: Days 2-4

We've recently started our countdown to Christmas and we've already fallen behind AND veared off of the plans we had for those days! We wouldn't be us if we didn't do that!! So, today (12-5) we played catch up!

Day 2 was to make an ornament for their tree! They have an ornament making playdate Thursday, so I figured why not make paper garland!

Day 3 should've been us going to the Kannapolis Christmas Festival, BUT.....

I had a Christmas photo session, and Mr. Homemaker kept the kiddo's for me. Awww.....what a sweetie! :)

He had the kid's outside playing pretty much all day with him (no complaints on their parts), so by dinner time (which is when we were SUPPOSED to leave) the kids were about to pass out over the dinner!! No way was I taking them somewhere that they'd fall asleep en route and be grouchy little monsters when we got there. So, we just skipped it!

Day 4 was supposed to be the kidlets taking a trip to the mall and visiting with the big guy in red, Santa!

BUT, my daddy ended up taking a trip to the ER yesterday and we went to visit him later that evening after he had gotten home. We ended up take out from

and watched

Even though our day didn't go as planned, we still enjoyed our evening!
