Reverse Advent Calendar

My kids are excited about Christmas.

They really are.

But they MUCH more excited about Nana and Poppy's visit. 
The countdown is on. 

They have started talking about all of the things 
they're going to do with them while they're here,
so I told them we could make a bucket list.
After a brief explanation of what that is,
they were on top of me demanding that I write faster!

So many fun things to do with Nana and Poppy!

1. Do some art projects
2. Make a mini movie theater in our house and watch Finding Dory
3. Make cupcakes with cherries on top

My girls helped me make a Reverse Advent Calendar box.
Each day we cross of the date and add one food item for the food bank.
We will fill it until the day that Nana and Poppy arrive!!
Then the very next day, we will deliver our box to a food bank location together.
I love how excited my girls are about this idea.
We created the box a couple of weeks ago,
so it's overflowing already.
