Countin' Down the Days

When my sister & I were little, we would always get one (okay, two-since we each needed our own) of those little "Advent" calendar's - where you open up one door a day until Christmas -and each door has a different treat behind it. I loved getting to open up that little door and see what my treat would be fore the day! The thought crossed my mind several weeks ago that Ava needed one, too, but of course, I never got around to getting it.

Well, apparently, Gigi remembered how big of a hit it was with me & Ashes - & came to the rescue to get Ava her very own...

My Little Pony style, no less!

Here's some of the loot she's gotten so far...

I cannot thank Gig enough for not getting her the one full of candy - thank you, thank you, thank you! This one is soooo much better - she absolutely loves it!!

Now if only I can convince her to stop calling the pony's "donkey's"....

And for the record...we do not celebrate the real "Advent"....just the Open-Up-A-Treat-Everyday kind :)
