Advent Surprise

My girls have one of the advent calendars that you put thing in. I have been collecting bits through the year for them & I have just checked & we have just about got something for every day....so only a few days with chocolate.

They are going to be so pleased as I have got some great things...

Necklaces
Lipgloss
Bath smellies
Stickers
Make your own Cards set
Paper Chains
Baking set to make xmas tree biscuits
Rings
I will put in a trip to see Father Christmas (going to go to the local steam train for a ride & meet the main man)
I will put in collect & decorate tree
24th I have got Tinkerbell DVD (which the 5 year old is desperate to see)

We have a santa ornament that I picked up, that is basically a plastic jar with santas head & he has braces on etc. Anything too big for the boxes will have a note in saying go to here. Anything too big for either will have a note with a clue on where it is hidden.

I am so excited. Also just rediscovered a huge father christmas toy that I got in the boots 75% off sale in Jan that can come down on the 1st (rest of the decorations wait until mid month as we have a real tree)
