thanks to strohbeere‘s inspiration:

although i really don’t like the annual hype about xmas, i absolutely love making the advent calendars for my kids. this year i have even managed to come up with them in time. want to see this year’s version?

advent calendar for my son

advent calendar for my daughter

furthermore i do enjoy decorating our house. i began to do this today, 1st advent … so i don’t have to show much, but there are 24 days left to go on crafting & decorating

we are going to fill the nativity scene day by day.

advent time snacks

yet another party

this is how our house looks like:

mice on the stairs

ghosts on the windowsill

bats at the window
