(sorry if this posts twice... I had a small glitch.)
Have you seen Dawn's Advent Calendar? She does a similar idea each year... It would scale to 40 days really easily:-)
What a good list. I'm always interested to see what everyone else is doing - it reminds me of things I might have forgotten. I have a new house to decorate for this year too so I don't know exactly how I'm going to do it.
Thanks for sharing this!
Hello,
I saw your comment on The Return Home and decided to pop over... Such a sweet blog, I loved your paper bag village. I know what my son and I will be doing tomorrow! ;-)
