Advent calenders

well...I hope I didn't hype it up too much or else you guys might just be disappointed to see that I'm super duper excited about our Advent calenders!!!!!

Why did I decide to share one with Nate?! I say this every year and every year I get mad we didn't buy two!

My calender is a trio of Schoko KinderEggs, SchokoRiegels and SchokoBons...tastytasty... 


 My bro's, all gummi candy from Haribo


We didn't have these when I were little, just the regular ones with a little square of chocolate in them.

Anyone else buy Advent calenders? 
I know they aren't as over the top here as you can get them in Germany nowadays.
Do you do anything else for the countdown of Christmas? 
I would love to hear what you do!

    I bought Lily one of the German Advent calendars with chocolate inside. She's going to flip out when she realizes that she gets to eat candy every day.

  3. I actually don't have one most years. Sometimes I get one of the plain chocolate ones. As a kid I had one that my parents would fill themselves every year.
    I have never had one like the one you have.

  4. We've got an Advent Calendar with little velcro pieces that cover the calendar. On each day, you take off a piece and put it on the tree at the top of the calendar. We've lost at least 3-4 pieces over the years, but I still love the thing.

  5. A gummy avent calendar? Where do I find one of those? I usually have them too, but this year I guess I forgot. It's not too late I guess.
    BTW I don't like to share either. I mean the chocolates are small... lol. ;)

  6. I don't buy them now, but my mom always bought them for my brother and I when we were kids, and we LOVED them.
