Coming Home for Christmas Countdown

So, as usual I'm freaking out with joy about Christmas and this year I'm freaking out with even more joy because I get to go to London and do the whole Christmas with the Vargas' thing which is like Christmas nowhere else on Earth. So much was I freaking out with joy that I nearly forgot that I would have Advent Calendar troubles what with leaving on the 7th. What is a girl to do? Bring her advent calendar with her? Then we struck on a marvellous plan. Using the advent calendar to count down the days to my flight instead of to Christmas Day. Yay!!

Such joy and excitement was only increased when Amanda got me this to countdown the days to my flight. I have never had an Advent Calendar so fancy. It pops up with a little house and then behind each door is a new character to add to the scene. I shall have to put it away when we're not home so that the cats don't eat it but I don't care. It's the best advent calendar I have ever, ever had.
