Randy the Reindeer

There was a little extra magic added to December this year in the form of a little reindeer named Randy ...

MOMENT: Hidden Pleasures

We started something new this year to build excitement for Christmas. Every morning, Tavish would find "Randy the Reindeer" somewhere with a note written in a rhyming couplet (of course) that told us what Christmas activity we would do that day. On top of the note was a number that told us how many days were left until Santa came. There was also a calendar where Tavish crossed off the day before bed.

Randy found himself in lots of fun places and his writer found themself writing couplets late in the evening at times (once post-feed in the middle of the night even - whoops!). He even made the trek with us to Arizona. We all had a great time doing the activities he told us to do from baking and caroling to crafting and playing. Now we all have 11 months to recover! ha.
