...and we're definitely over the advent calendar thing you buy at the store...the one made of paper with dusty gray chocolates (surprise!) hidden behind the doors. They were given to us as gifts recently and the kids just tore em up (when I was not looking), ate up all the stale chocolates and fell asleep on the couch with stomach aches......not FUN! Enter, the Jesse Tree.......definitely FUN, slightly hair-pullin-messy, and grounded in truth.. enjoy the pics...
