Day 21 - Christmas concert day! This is probably the only advent calendar picture that we will have where Maelie is actually dressed!

I headed off to the concert at lunchtime. Since the audience is halfway across the gym and it is jam packed, it is hard to get close up pictures! So this one is blurry but I had to take the other kids out of the picture. Maelie was the grandma holding the tourtiere.

Once we got home, we had a TON of Christmas cards in the mail! We were both so excited to open them up and read the messages!!
Maelie got to open up an activity present to keep herself occupied while I worked on the Christmas chocolates for the teachers.

She had to put little plastic beads inside the shapes and then we would bake them.

It took a lot of patience to fill them up! but she did it! and she enjoyed the craft a lot. She would like some more of these.
They turned out so nice! I added a string to them and we'll hang them up on the tree.
This is only a tiny tiny sample of what I made this evening! hahaha
A person at work asked for a little arrangement with Santa. Hopefully he'll like it!
Maelie helped with the teachers gifts. She counted the chocolates and filled up the bags while I tied them. She also wrote out the little tags for everyone and kept a list, checking it twice. I hope the teachers weren't naughty, but nice! :)
For her homeroom teacher who she adores, we made an arrangement with a 3D tree, a sleigh and tons of little chocolates. We also included a gift card for her.

I hope everyone loves their goodies tomorrow on the last day of school! woo hooo! it's flying by!
