{Christmas Countdown} Advent Lunches: 6 Geese & 5 Rings

Six geese a laying... five golden rings! 
I didn't blog last night so now you get a two for one post. ;)  We have been counting down the days until Christmas with our Advent Lunches and when we hit twelve days left, Little Miss insisted we theme them with 12 Days of Christmas song. 

{Christmas Countdown} Advent Lunches: 7 Swans a Swimming

Only seven more days until Christmas! That also means we're onto number 7 of our 12 Days of Christmas song lunches.

 

This is our third year doing our December countdown with "Advent Lunches", but when we hit twelve Little Miss wanted me to incorporate the song into her lunch this year.

 

We've been having a little fun with this one - to tell you truth, it's been refreshing. Tonight, after I showed Little Miss her "Seven Swans a Swimming" EasyLunchbox, she fell to the floor laughing. Mission accomplished.

 

{Christmas Countdown} Advent Lunches: Eight Maids A Milking

Only eight more days until Christmas! I can hardly believe it.

 

This is our third year counting down the days in December with our Advent Lunches. Since we hit 12 days left, Little Miss asked I count down the 12 Days of Christmas song in her school lunch. I reminded her that some of the days fell on weekends and some would be tricky, but I'd do my best.

 

For the "Eight Maids a Milking", I had many ideas pop into my head but executing them was another story. I also found out, in the process, I do not own a cow shaped cookie cutter. lol... So, instead, I decided to have a little fun with it and make a milk carton sandwich instead. Heh heh...

 

Little Miss thought it was hilarious, of course. Since I don't eat dairy, she also told me I wasn't allowed to have any of her sandwich (even though it's made with dairy free ingredients). Silly girl!

 

{Christmas Countdown} Advent Lunches: Nine Ladies Dancing

Last week Friday marked 12 days left until Christmas. Little Miss had asked me a few weeks ago, when we started our Advent Lunches countdown this year, if we could do the "12 Days of Christmas" for our lunches. I told her I'd do my best, knowing there were also weekends in between.

 

Monday marks only nine days left... and that means "nine ladies dancing". So we filled her Easylunchbox with ballerina slipper sandwiches to dance in her lunch.

 

 

{Christmas Countdown} Advent Lunches: And then there were 12

14...13...12...

Friday's lunch marks only 12 days left until Christmas!

 

I can't believe how quick this countdown has gone. Time flies when you're having fun.

 

Now for a little blog catch-up with school lunches from the past few days. You can see all our advent lunches by clicking here.
