December 5

Another page that took much longer than anticipated. I do like how it turned out-not the way I had planned though.
I have some hidden journalling underneath the pictures of our wrecked Advent calendar from this year. The boys took most of the toys out of the boxes on 11/30.
On the page with the numbers, I should have started with the 24 in the top left corner but realized it right before I took the photos. I attached a large office envelope to the back of this page to hold ideas for Advent calendars I have saved. One from Martha Stewart made with baby socks, Pottery Barn’s house that I have been
eyeing, but luckily is sold out. I refuse to pay $25 more on ebay! The last idea is one from a participant of last years Journal your Christmas class. Little presents wrapped in kraft paper, with numbers stamped on them. Simply placed in a crate with a string of Christmas lights.
