Can you believe it? today is the day to start the 12 days of Christmas! We can't believe how time is flying! I thought that it would be fun to start with our first "tutorial" with a tradition that our mom use to carry out when we were little! We used to find a family in need (in our ward, neighborhood, or family) and did the 12 days of Christmas for them! She did it in a way that was fun and exciting for kids, and also helpful for parents! we thought we could share the items with you, incase you want to run to the store and find a family right now to help out!! good luck!!
1- Partrege in a Pear Tree-A Can of Pears!- homemade would be awesome!
2- Turtle Doves- Dove Chocolates (thats the hardest one to give away!!)
3- French Hens- Frenches Fried Onions (and the recpie for Green Bean Cass.)
4- Calling Birds- A Bird Feeder!!
5- Gold Rings- Ring Pops
6- Geese-A-Laying- A Dozen Eggs (the fruit of their labor!!)
7- Swans a Swimming- Swansen Meat Pies
8- Maids a Milking- Chocolate Milk Mix (or hot cocoa packets)
9- Ladies Dancing- A Dance Mix CD!
10- Lords a Leaping- POPCORN!!
