Extremely Late Advent Calendar

I got this idea from my friend Jessica's blog. I realize this is grossly late and overdue for Advent, but I decided to put it on here anyway! And, since it is so late, that just means you have to double or triple up on each day! All you have to do is pick something on the list (or 5) and do it that day-- all the way until Christmas. So, here is what Jess put on hers, with a few changes to make it personal (I am copying and pasting because I am just that original...) Merry Christmas, and happy celebrating, everyone!
  1. Tell someone you love them
  2. Make Hot Chocolate and Marshmallows
  3. Make a popcorn garland
  4. Make a tree decoration that reminds you of Christ
  5. Make a tradition to make at least one tree decoration each year
  6. Put up Christmas decorations while listening to Christmas Music
  7. Make decorative sugar cookies and share them with neighbors
  8. In your prayers today, only give thanks without asking for anything.
  9. Try to be as kind as possible to everyone today
  10. Go to church for Christmas / Christmas Eve 
  11. Send a card to a friend by mail in this holiday season
  12. Go on a Christmas Light tour / ride
  13. Be the first to say hello to everyone today
  14. Watch Elf in a onesie with Derek
  15. Open a gift on Christmas Eve as a family
  16. Put up a wreath
  17. Make cinnamon potpourri
  18. Go to Barnes and Nobles and pick out a new Christmas CD
  19. Exchange gifts
  20. Make a give list instead of a list of gifts you'd like
  21. Find mistletoe, hang it in the house, and kiss under it.
  22. Make snow angels
  23. Dress Charlie up as an elf (or something else festive)
