Tradition!

Last night it came to Abbi's attention that today is the first day of December and she was not about to wake up this morning without taking care to make sure a tradition is carried out in our home. The wonderful Advent Calender! Usually, it's a simple calender with a small door with a small little chocolate behind each door, not this year, oh no, we found one that has My Little Ponies and it's accessories behind each door! Each year we do this calender and every time she is patient yet excited to open a new door every day. I have to admit it is a great way to count down the days til Christmas. Plus, bonus, getting her out of bed to get ready for school today was a breeze! hope it continues. This also made me think today about a lesson we had in Relief Society about righteous traditions in our family and although My Little Ponies may not be all that righteous it is a tradition truly enjoyed in our household, so I figure through the month of December I will blog about different traditions we keep in our house and as of now, I will be very interested to see if we have enough traditions to share for the whole month.
