On the 17th Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

So I cannot send you today's "gift" until you text me saying you've read this. There is to be no judging and or laughing while enjoying the gift. It is for you only and should not be shared because then I will be embarrassed. No this is not something inappropriate it is just something silly and fun. But seriously no making fun of me haha 

On The 16th Day Of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

Today is one of my favourite. Today. Want you to pull out your bible and read through the Christmas story. I know that you are already starting to hear it a lot. I have never read it through just on my own to reflect, so I thought that it would be nice to read it just by yourself. You may get something new out of it this time who knows? 

On the 15th Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

On The 12th Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

Tonight I want you to look outside :) (really hope there is snow or else this is awkward). Isn't the world so much prettier when there is snow? It is so cool that God created this white blanket to cover the earth every year and although it is cold and is not good for driving it is still a beautiful creation. So tonight enjoy the view and crack open the box from yesterday. As long as you are enjoying the view you mine as well enjoy some chocolates :)

On The Eleventh Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

Only open the bag. Do not open the box!

On The Eighth Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

I had to wait until you got home today to post this one. As I told you this morning you need to take video proof, even if the video is only a few seconds.

According to Will Ferrel, the best elf there is.. " The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!"
So. Time to sing! Belt out those Christmas carols, they not only will put you in a great mood but Im SURE that your neighbours and family will love it too!!!

**Remember the video!**

On The Fourth Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

Good afternoon! Thought I would keep you on your toes today and post a little bit later than usual. So today if the 4th day of Christmas and that means... its time for some CBC thats right. Charlie Brown's Christmas! Now I understand that you dont always like to sit through a full movie so I made sure to pick 1) a classic and 2) a movie that is not too long. Curl up in bed after dinner tonight and enjoy the brilliance that is Charlie Brown\s Christmas.

On The Third Day Of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

So like I told you last night today is going to be different than I would have liked. Some of my elves were not cooperating yesterday. So today you should have gotten a letter in the mail but it will not get there for another few days because of a little post office mix up. So instead today I am going to email you the letter so you can still read it today but you will still get the hard copy of the letter very soon! 
So its time to read your first letter of JJ's Christmas!

YOU'VE GOT MAIL! 

On The Second Day Of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

This Christmas I don't want to focus on the gifts (although I look forward to presents and throughout JJ's Christmas there will be a few ;) ) I want to focus on the real meaning of Christmas and the Christmas spirit. Pay it forward today J! So to make someone's Monday its time to go buy someones coffee. Either pay in the drive thru or go inside. I hope that today you enjoy the gift of giving as much as I do and that you get to experience the pure joy that comes from it :)

On The First Day of Christmas My Best Friend Gave To Me

Its finally December 1st! Time to play the Christmas music loud and proud (not that we werent doing it before but now people cant look at us funny haha). Today is just a warm up for the month so I thought that we should start things off with the one thing that every single person needs to get into the Christmas spirit. A Christmas countdown! Time starts NOW! Have a wonderful and a very merry first day of Christmas Janine :)


 

Rules, Warnings and Conditions

So before things get started I just wanted to let you know that there are a few rules.

1) NO CHEATING! Some things will be arriving before the day they are to be opened. The date will be clearly marked on everything so no peaking!
2) no asking others is they know what's going on, some people will be in on certain things. And no, no one will tell you anything
3) there is a requirement. A major requirement actually. You need to take a picture or video everyday of what you are doing, got or gave :) text them or email them to me each day so that at the end you will have a little online scrapbook of the whole month!
4) if you don't like something or want to do something that's okay. I just want to see that you tried it :)
5) WARNING: I am extremely cheesy. You already know this but be prepared.
6) I feel it's necessary to repeat number one . No cheating.
7) have fun! I hope that you like everything and that you have a great month of December!

Happy Birthday/ Merry Christmas Janine!

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I am only a tad excited!! You are officially receiving you birthday/Christmas present. I have decided this year to not make you feel special on just your birthday, I've done that. I wanted to figure out some way to one up myself this year and I really hope I have. So it's time for something different. Every single day from December 1st to Christmas Day I will have something for you to either open, receive, give or do. Whether it's a letter, present, or a gift that just keeps on giving. I hope that these things not only make you feel special but also put you and those around you in the Christmas spirit. So welcome Miss J, to your personalized, one of a kind, Christmas advent calendar!

See you on December 1st! ⛄️❄️
