Day 25 of Christmas Memories
I have to admit I have ran out of memories but I thought I would list some Christmas Eve and Day traditions here at the Minter house and also new traditions that have came about this year actually just a few minutes ago.
Old Traditions:
**Gift Exchange on Christmas Eve**
(thanks to the Sedillos for the idea)
**Aunt Laurie spends the night**
**Track Santa**
there is a website you can go to and check to see where he has been
**Open gifts from youngest to oldest and then from oldest to youngest**
that way we can see what everyone got and it lasts a little longer
New Traditions:
**Pulling Christmas pranks on Kalah**
tonight Tarin came up with this idea to pull a prank on Kalah while she was sleeping but wasn't quite sure of what to do. with not much thought we decided to get out some old jingle bells and have Tarin run into her room telling her that Santa is on the roof as I was in the hall jingling the bells. Kalah said she knows she could hear them too and that was about as much as we got out of her this year. we plan to come up with a master plan through out this next year that will be perfect on Christmas Eve night
**Checking our License Plate List**
Tarin and I are starting a challenge tomorrow that we will have a little notepad in my car and her purse because she cant drive but this is how you play. Through out the year while you are driving in the "your" car or Tarin has to be riding in someone else's car besides mine you will write down out of state license plates. You want to get the most written down out of the 50 only writing each state down once. The one with the most written down buys the other 2 movie tickets. We are not for sure on the prize but that is whats in mind.

Day 24 of Christmas Memories
This was our first Christmas together. So cute. So young. So happy. I'm just kidding we are still cute, young, and happy.
Day 23 of Christmas Memories
This was my first quilt I ever made. My Aunt Laurie had just got a new bedroom set and I wanted to make her a blanket for Christmas to go with it. It was very small as you can see but is used for decorations to this day in her bedroom.
