This year we tried creating a "countdown to Christmas" chain for the boys' room. Jone and I pasted together various colored construction paper chains and it hung from their ceiling to the floor when we started it in early December. It seemed to help Ashy get excited for Christmas a little bit and help the wait seem more organized. Although we sometimes missed days here and there, they usually pulled off one chain each night before bed. It was a fun little tradition and one that I think we'll continue next year! This is a picture of our last little chain left that we pulled off on Christmas Eve!
