Hi everyone!
So, we've been a little behind on dates (obviously) and decided to post some of the older ones that we had pictures of, but never got around to posting. It's a bit unfortunate I didn't get this one up in July, but hey, here it is now!
Sometimes you just miss Christmas. Am I right? Yeah, I am. ;) So I thought it would be fun to celebrate some of the more playful parts of Christmas during one of our July dates.
We started out with a "empty" tree (made out of construction paper), and some empty stockings:
First, we went to the store and bought some little treats to wrap and put in each others' stockings (and yes, we did wait until the next morning to open them). Then we took out some more construction paper in different colors and made our own ornaments!
We decorated while listening to Christmas music on Pandora.
We also made a snowman...for dinner!
Our lovely snowman pizza. Original idea from deliacreates.com
We also ate on Christmas plates:
One of the fun things about this date is that you can change it to match your own holiday traditions. Michael and I watched some fun Christmas themed movies, had nativity decorations, and tried to read A Christmas Carol (though we never ended up having the time).
