I love this time of year! Love, love, love it. If I had 3 wishes, one of them would be to put time in slow motion from now until Christmas every year. That way I could savor the holidays and all of there goodness.
One of best (if not the best) parts of Christmas is doing activities together as a family. I love Christmas traditions with the family. It is fun that my kids are getting older and we are able to do more activities.
To help get everybody excited for family activities (and also so we remember to do everything) I have designed a Christmas bucket list of family activities. It was fun to think through and get excited for the Christmas activities we will be doing in the next few weeks. It also helped me put together our Christmas schedule so we can make sure we can do all the things we are excited about. I tried to keep the list <somewhat> limited so that we don’t feel overwhelmed like there are 1,000,000 things we need to do on top of the 1,000,000 things that are happening over the holidays.
I made two designs. I can’t decide which one I like better. I also created a background that you can use to make your own bucket list. Which design do you like more?

OMGish, I love this! I’d love for you to link up at my party, Stitch n’ Niche Saturdays: http://www.coffeeandtheirkisses.com/2011/11/stitch-n-niche-saturdays-7-features.html.
I like the blue one better. Thanks so much for this list of ideas. I’m pinning it to help me along a little.:)
That’s the one I like better too. A little more subtle and elegant. 🙂
This is so cute! Thanks for the templates:)

This is a sweet printable. I like both designs–each has it’s own personality. I might use this for a holiday party invitation. Of course, I’ll have to decide which awesome version I want to use. Thanks for sharing.
Love this sign! So cute
Would love to get your Easter Hershey Kisses labels (planning ahead!), but can’t seem to download them. Any suggestions or could you send them to me?
Thanks, Kate
