It's that time of year again... Advent! And keeping in with tradition, I'm planning an Advent Calendar filled with things to do in making memories as a family. Each year we try to focus on memory making. Some days have more than one activity listed. That's because I just couldn't decide which one I'd rather do. I'm still playing with the order a little bit as we finalize our traveling plans, but this is what our Advent calendar looks like so far.

In addition to our Advent Calendar, I'm planning on doing a Book Advent as well. I've been reserving books from the library and searching through our bookshelves so I'm excited to get started.
