What inexpensive or free activities do you do with your family during winter/Christmas?? My hubby has been laid off for 13 weeks--- but we want to celebrate time with our family and friends. Here are some of the ideas I have so far:
Night under the Christmas tree... we LOVE laying under the tree looking up at the lights from the underside of the tree. This tradition started for us 3 almost 4 years ago after our DS10 got sight!!
Lights around town: We LOVE taking a drive around town--looking at everyone's Christmas Lights/decorations.
Christmas Movie Marathons: These are a blast--lots of junk food while we watch the Santa Claus (Trilogy) lol. Or do the Christmas Classics: It's a wonderful Life, White Christmas.
Cousin's Weekend: I have my cousin's over for a weekend of Crafts, snacks and time together. We have done this for 9 years so far---the whole idea being making something special for the people we love the most.
First snowday: I make the family pancakes and homemade hot chocolate! Then it's soup and homemade bread for lunch... every single first snowday! (Ok so the pancakes and hot chocolate are snowday musts here in Wisconsin)
