Where do you find the time? I guess I can't find the time because I am a single mom of a two and four year old and work full time. Could that be the it? Now I wish I would not have spent the money on a store bought version of the Advent tree (a plastic cookie cutter shaped tree with small little boxes that are filled with the exact same piece of candy in each box-BORING). Your version is much cuter. You have great ideas. Mind if I copy you? Kim....hilarious. Thanks for the good laugh. Very cute! Where do you find the time?

We have one of the wooden box advent calendars and we fill it with candy and notes for the kids. I can't get on the ball this year so there has been more candy than notes... I need to get with it! that looks like lots of fun!

They are going to love it. I went crazy looking for the kind where you hang ornaments on a tree each day (this kid is spoiled enough without getting another treat every day before Christmas) and I finally found one on Lillian Vernon - now if it ever gets here before the 25th!

I need to start some kind of traditions like that. BTW, to find manzanita branches, look in a local bird store if you have one. We used to buy them for our Umbrella Cockatoo. But, if I recall correctly, they aren't cheap. VERY cute!!!! I need to start some kind of traditions like that.

We had a felt one growing up that hung on a door. It was so simple, but it is one of my favorite memories of the holidays as a child. Your girls are going to have so much fun with this tradition!
