Advent Calendar

We are very excited to be able to do an advent calendar with Grace this year. I bought a reuseable one this year at The Christmas Tree Shop. We had a hard time deciding what to fill it with. We wanted it to be a special treat, but didn't want Grace to have lots of candy, plus it has to be dairy free. We found some marshmellow ice cream cone candies at Toys R Us. I got a pack of 9 of them to put in almost everyday. The other days we filled with organic animal crackers.So we have a good balance of sugary treats and sensible treats.

"What is this sugary goodness?"
