For FHE on Monday we went shopping for a 6 year old boy. It was hard picking out a toy this year. If it was totally up to me I would have gone the Lego route. Steve actually enjoys this part of Christmas so I let him take the lead and then we take a vote.
We also made some bead elfs that have been on my must do list for the last couple of years. The girls had fun picking colors and putting faces on them. Emily was working on homework and couldn't find her elf but they all made them.

Last night I threw together a Polar Express night. I found the cute printable train online @
www.spoonful.com. Polar Express tickets and bell tags @
www.craftingchicks.com. Cotton Candy, Marshmallows, Marshmallow bits, Peppermint candy and Candy Cane Kisses for our Hot Chocolate bar.
Christmas Tree Pizza.
After dinner we sent the girls looking for their lost Polar Express tickets. We watched the movie up to the Hot Chocolate part and then paused it while we enjoyed some Hot Chocolate. Then we finished the movie and hopped in the Poulson Express to go drive through the Lights Before Christmas. When we came home we gave them a bell necklace.
Lindley had her Preschool Christmas Program today. I converted a pillowcase dress into a skirt for Lindley to wear.
