Welcome back to the What Have You Mini Advent podcast.

Today, guys.

December 12th.

That really means we're halfway there, halfway to Christmas Eve. So it's all rush shipping from

here on out guys. Oh my word. There are so many things I have to do so fast. But okay, so we talked the other day about stockings and how we set them all up in the morning and round. But today we're talking about another tradition. So the stockings, I set

them all up. Luke and I are in the two armchairs, then the kids are all around. And actually,

I'm just going to say, when our kids were all are all

really level in the kind of phase where they didn't care what we got

when nobody was, they didn't know what the parents did. Yeah, nobody cared. Yeah.

We don't do this anymore because now the kids are interested in care about that.

But we used to in the middle of the time when we were setting everything up for in the late Christmas Eve night

That Luke and I would just open our stockings from each other in the dark of the night of Christmas Eve and do that because the kids it didn't matter we need we were needed in other things we had in that way we had kind of a very sweet calm time about

I love it it wasn't all of our gifts to each other it was just stockings and that was it was always fun so anyways we did that we don't know but I set all the

stockings up around but the other thing that we have done is that I set Christmas

breakfast I set our coffee table like it is the table.

I love that and I definitely poached your idea at least one year.

I think I forgot the last few so I'm glad we're talking

about this again it's a fun idea yeah it was it's just the literally the only

time of year we do it we have a brass tray that is the coffee table right now it's a big round one so we just flip it trash but I put a little round table cloth on it I buy we'll do whatever have like I'll usually

it's paper plates of some kind but it will be like a cute festive little paper plate thing

but I set it all up and it is just kind of comic but

super fun and it is the first thing that we do is gather around and eat breakfast.
