| Carter's ART project |
This year for Christmas we kept it very simple and tried to help the kids understand that all the advent calendar things we did together and our vacation to San Antonio was all part of Christmas. Carter really did understand and appreciate the importance of time together rather than material things. For Christmas Carter received a metal detector (his number 1 want on his list), a long-sleeved armor all shirt, and alarm clock/ iphone dock.
Lanie received Daniel Tiger's treehouse, Elsa from Frozen doll that sings, and a couple puzzles. Together they got the game Labrynth.
