well, in 2 more months, exactly 85 days more...i have started decorating my office board, pinning down the famous christmas countdown numbers..i have attached the picture, this was taken last week i guess..ehhee
I have a chalkboard to count down the days they have them at DOllar tree here.
last year i was seperated from my partner so christmas for me and my three children, then aged, 5, 4 and 7 months was last minute and on a very tight budget. we ended up making a lot of decorations using items from the recycle box, making snowmen and santas and painting christmas posters. this year they want to do the same, but not rushed so if anyone has any ideas it would help a lot.
First of all, I hope this Christmas is much better for you and your children! If you want to make decorations and ornaments, check out FamilyFun.com's A Homemade Christmas. There are articles on making sweets, ornaments, decorations, and lots of other ideas that you and your kids are sure to enjoy! Let us know if you find something you really like!
