Harleigh could care less about an Advent Calendar any more, but I like them. Found this one at Target last night. Makes mornings leading up to Christmas all that much more fun!
ADDED NOTE: This is not a chocolate advent calendar, just one with pictures behind the windows. Wouldn't want anyone to make a special trip to Target and be disappointed.
Advent Calendars are a tradition at our house too. My children are 23 & 19 but still look forward to their chocolate Advent calendars :-) Yours is gorgeous!
I have to go to Target tomorrow morning and we'll be having one of those advent calendars. I think I still have the one I made for my boys out of burlap fabric when they were little. I'll have to look when we get all the Christmas stuff out.
"Our house was not unsentient matter — it had a heart and a soul, and eyes to see with; and approvals and solicitudes and deep sympathies; it was of us, and we were in its confidence and lived in its grace and in the peace of its benedictions. We never came home from an absence that its face did not light up and speak out in eloquent welcome — and we could not enter it unmoved."- Samuel Clemens
I am probably the most content person you'd ever want to meet. I have a decent job working with people I like, a loving family including a swell Old English Sheepdog, a home where nesting and curling up on slipcovered sofas is required, and a life rich in creative crafting and daydreaming. I someday want a cottage at the beach where my grandchildren can bring sandy feet into the house, wet bathing suits can dry on the front porch and everything we need to get to is a bicycle ride away.

Dawn,

Thanks for the tip.
