One of our new family traditions this year is doing the Advent calendar.  We'll do it differently next year--it will be more about Jesus' birth and less about Santa and getting a chocolate!  But this is what works for this year.  Luke absolutely loves doing this every night.  He starts squealing the second he sees it!  We count down the days each night and then Luke gets to open the door and get the little chocolate out.  Definitely the highlight of his whole day!

 I love the excitement on Luke's face!

And eating!
