I decided last year that i was going to compile a list of my favorite Christmas advent stories… and read one every night to my kids during the month of December….and I didn’t do it last year.
and I barely remembered this year when I found my mom’s book….
and I was going to put it off for another year…but carpe diem right? let’s seize the carpe and get on with it!
This is the idea. You print them all out and put in a binder. Then every night or morning or day before Christmas you read one to get in you in the spirit for Christmas!
so I made myself a christmas binder to hold all the Christmas advent stories: (followed the same basic tutorial HERE)
I just found this stash of Christmas fabric that i was going to make table runners for my family last year. kimbo minus two…
I’m also going to print a title page for each with a picture to color:

Love your binder. I'm sure going to take advantage of your generosity and make copies to make a book for my grandchildren. Thank you and your Mom for sharing.

Love this idea! I'm currently in Disney with the fam and slightly freaking out that when I get ome tomorrow, that I have zero things ready for December and no Advent calendar or anything to help my kids focus on the real meaning of Christmas.So… I think I just found a great solution! Thanks so much!
