countdown week 2

Day 8: Act of Service - Take food to the food pantry.
Our church was collecting food, so
we bought some of the items they were requesting
including peanut butter, pasta, and cereal.
.
Day 9: Take Daddy out for Mexican.
Kenny was home for the weekend, so
we had a special night out
at one of our favorite restaurants.
.
Day 10: New Ornament for the Christmas tree.
It was a cute plush cupcake
that Carly decided to hang in her room
rather than on the tree.
.
Day 11: Christmas movie night.
Carly chose Santa Clause II
{and popcorn}.
.
Day 12: Art project
Carly decided she wanted to make more
glitter ornaments.
She now has a whole bowl full.
They turned out really pretty.
.
Day 13: Bubble bath in Mom's bathtub.
{the jets make lots of bubbles}
.
Day 14: Act of Service - Make "thinking of you" Treats to handout.
Carly used printables that I found by way of Pinterest
to make these cute bags of Hershey Kisses.
She handed them out to our sweet neighbor, the secretary at school,
her hairdresser, and the mailman. She still has a couple to
hand out as needed.
