Last year I did the 12 days of Christmas for Rob and this year my sister was requesting all that I did, so I thought that it might be fun to post it to my blog.
12 Days of Christmas

And it's not the right season for pear trees.
So just stick these in your own tree!!

Oh! That's really cute. I might have to use that some year.
I love doing the 12 days of Christmas. We did it this year for a couple of families by putting all 12 days in a huge box with each gift individually wrapped and labeled with the day. This made it easier for us to keep it anonymous. It is tricky delivering something 12 days in a row. By the way, where do you get chocolate frog suckers??
