Christmas Happenings

Christmas time is here!!!!
The day after Thanksgiving we put up Christmas! I couldn't wait. This year we have started some super fun traditions now that Shayna is older and it being Indy's 1st Christmas!!! So much excitement from this mama! 

Our elf on the shelf, we named Dotty, has made her presence. 
Willie and I have had so much fun with her! Shayna anticipates every morning to go find Dotty or see what she has done while she slept. She knows not to touch her or her "MAGIC" will go away and Santa will be really mad at you.
This is one of my favorites so far that Dotty has done!


We started a Book Advent this year.
We won "Best Trunk" this Halloween at our Ward's Truck or Treat in October (we did an Addams Family Fear Factor thing). The prize was a $60 gift card to Seagull Books. We used that to get all the Christmas books we could. So this activity came out free and has been so 
much fun.
Every night before bed we open a new book and that is our bedtime book for the night. We love our new collection and I have no idea what book is what (except the last one, the scriptures to read story of Christs birth). So it is such a fun surprise every night!
We were able to get a very good variety of nativity books and fun Christmas books. By far has been a new tradition we will continue for years as our children get older.


Of course a ton of baking is going on!!!! 
Shayna lovessss making cookies! We have a ball!
So much more fun to come in the Farias Home. 
Is really is the most wonderful time of year!


Forever Farias.
