{advent socks}

It's that time of year again....
to get the advent socks up and ready for
December 1st!
these blue and grey socks were last years.....
I had such a hard time finding cute socks this year....

this is what I came up with....
everyday they are filled with a small treat....
I use a little chalkboard tag to keep track of the date
{thank you saskia for the little blackboard tag}
then after 24 days of treats...everyone gets the
socks to wear
Christmas Eve!


even though my miss molly is not here this year....
I still had to add her into the fun
{I actually mailed all her treats to England so she could play along}

tomorrow the fun begins

how do you countdown to Christmas?

~ Knee High Fun ~

I found them today!
{all fuzzy and warm}
~Every year starting December 1st
it is our family tradition to hang socks
on our stair railing
one for each child~
~I fill them every morning with little treats
until December 25th~
~like an advent calendar
only 100xs better
because the treats are amazing
handpicked by me~


~this is definitely a
Christmas highlight in our home~

~when my girls came home today and saw the socks
they knew exactly what they
would be used for~
{the only requirement is that they have to be knee high socks}

~the fun part is they get to wear the socks after~

~advent calendar socks....
so much fun
~
{the store clerk told me they were going to get pink stripe ones in too... we will need some of those }
