Day 2 means more decorations for the house as we got ready to deck the halls officially. Before we did that though, we needed to hit Target and Michael's to get supplies for the coming days. Henry woke up this morning and was eager to open up the next day in his Lego advent calendar. Today, he built a chainsaw/ tree trimmer and wondered where to put it. I said, "Well, the park bench is a good spot to leave the tree trimmer." Oh the lessons he's learning. :)
After church/ Sunday school, lunch, and shopping, we got home and started officially decking. We put up some new lights this year (to replace the ones that finally broke last year) including some cool snowmen in the walkway to greet visitors. We completed the Tinsel craft before heading off to bed.
Day 3 is the first weekday of the advent season but that won't slow us down. Henry was super excited this morning when he woke up and wanted to see what advent activity was in store for him. Today, we'll be doing something for others as we participate in the Toys for Tots donation event at Toys R Us. Henry's always been a really good sharer and he did a fantastic job picking out some cool gifts for other kids (his Mama's shopping genes kicking in there).
