12 Days of Christmas (Work in progress)

For the past few years my Mom has done the 12 days of Christmas for the girls. She sends us a big box with 12 presents, and we open one each day. Sometimes they're fun (yay games!) and sometimes they're inspirational (conference talk, anyone?). They have had a lot of fun each year she does it and this year was especially fun for us. Thanks so much mom! We know it takes you a lot of time to come up with 12 ideas, wrap a bunch of gifts, and get it all shipped to us before the 12th of December. I tried to take pictures of each day, but as you can tell I missed a few.

The 1st day we got a little craft--a Christmas countdown advent calendar.

We read a talk and received a board with the word Believe on it.

Hot potato. This has to be the loudest game ever. But Claire loved to play it. We had lots of fun playing, but Jon hid it somewhere to keep himself from breaking it.

Read a talk called, "Look up, Stand up and Cheer up!"

Mickey's Christmas Carol and some popcorn.

Super cute aprons and some ingredients to make coconut balls. We modified them and experimented this year and they were soo yummy.

There was also a puzzle, a book and some money given for going out to ice cream and doing service. Everything was so fun and we loved it. Thank you so much!
