Check It Out: 2014 Advent Calendar

It’s time for our 6th annual family advent calendar! Every day from December 1st until December 25th, we have planned a Christmas related activity for our family. Some are big, some are small, some are for the entire family while others just for Brad and I. Throughout the month, I will be sharing some of those activities and traditions and hope you stop by and do the same.
