Gracie's Advent Calendar

Courtesy of Granny Suki and Grand dad Colin, Gracie has a wonderful Advent calendar in the form of Santa's slippers! It is the cutest thing and hangs from our fireplace (thus there is no chocolate) and every morning Gracie wakes up and races out to the living room to pick her next advent preset for the day. So far the Advent elves have left her a little finger puppet doggie, a "Shrek" toothbrush, a little container of play dough and a little purple witch ornament. More importantly Gracie is learning how to count down to Christmas and knows that on the last slipper day,the 24th, that is Christmas Eve and the day Granny and Granddad arrive at the airport.
