12 Days of Christmas Couples Challenge

            SO, I know it’s not even Thanksgiving yet, but I wanted to start a little planning for Christmas time! This year I will be spending my first Christmas with my fiancé so I thought I’d make it a little fun.

            Alright, so I put together this thing called “The 12 Days of Christmas Couples Challenge”. It’s pretty simple. Essentially there are 12 tasks to complete before Christmas, they’re you’re typical Christmas activities. For each task you complete you take a picture to document it and at the end you’ll put it all together in a scrapbook. My fiancé and I will be a dual military relationship soon (I commission soon) , so I wasn't sure how many Christmases we will have together in the future.  I thought the scrapbook would be a good idea, that way we can look at it when we can’t spend our Christmases together. This is my first time doing this, so once I have my finished scrapbook, I’ll post pictures: D

So here are the tasks, you can complete them in any order and modify them to work for you!

The 12 Days of Christmas Couples Challenge Task Sheet:

	Build a Gingerbread House
	Make Christmas Cookies
	Decorate a tree
	Hot cocoa/ eggnog & Elf ( or any Christmas movie)
	Drive around and look at Christmas lights
	Visit the Christmas Village at Busch Gardens & take a picture w/ Santa
	Go to a Christmas Parade
	Kiss Under the Mistletoe ( yes, I know, it’s cliché)
	Make Christmas ornaments OR buy Christmas ornaments that remind you of each other
	Buy matching Christmas pajamas
	Bake a birthday cake for Jesus
	Buy a toy(s) for Toys-for-Tots/ any Volunteering/ Charity Event (adopt-a-family, caroling, etc.)

I hope you guys have a fun time complete these tasks! I know they're pretty generic Christmas activities  but documenting them and scrap booking them will make great memories to look back at, especially if it's a first Christmas with a loved one. :)
