1. Visit our local festival of lights. It is truly an amazing display and I’m hoping this year will be a little warmer so the kids can handle it! The past couple of years have been brutally cold during December.
2. Decorate our tree together. We like to do this the week after Thanksgiving. I’m excited that both our boys can participate this year!
3. Bake and decorate cookies together. Yummy. This is such a fun activity with great rewards at the end! (We get to eat the cookies of course!)
4. Pick out Christmas presents with each child for Daddy and for their brother. This is a special, quality time and I look forward to seeing what they pick out!
5. See Santa. Amazingly my kids are not afraid so we enjoy this!

The Festival of Lights sounds really neat! There is a Festival of Trees near us, but it’s expensive to get into. We actually like to go to the Lighted Implement (tractor) Parade in a nearby town-that’s always fun!
Great traditions. Some of those are my favs too!
Hey the Lighted Implement (tractor) Parade sounds really fun, don’t have that here, but the town does do a festival of lights thing that’s beautiful and fun.
Those are some great holiday events to look forward to. We also do many of the same types of activities and it is no surprise why we all get so excited for the holidays!
