Christmas 2015

Christmas Day highlights 

Lots of outside time since it was so warm today. 

Also lots of Lego assembling today as well 

Sweet gifts but this one made me tear up. 

Christmas Eve, we watched and read about the Nativity story . 

Two days before Christmas, we looked at Christmas lights as we took the kids around the neighborhood on their bikes . 

Christmas week, my inlaws came in town as well as dear out of town friends. 

Candlelight service is one of my favorite events. 5 minutes of sweet peace 

Daily Jesse tree ornaments, Nativity books and activities

 

Preschool Christmas party

Christmas cards are another one of my favorite traditions. Love keeping them and praying over them through out the year. 

Christmas Parties: 

Baking, tree lighting, church play, small group party: 

Merry Christmas everyone! 

Advent Season

This is our first year with three mobile boys and one in preschool . It has us doing activities a bit differently this year. We are doing our daily book and ornament hanging at the end of the day . 

We are doing The Jesse Tree ornaments again this year. I have each boy hang an ornament on the tree every day as we talk about that bible story that leads up to Jesus' birth . 

We'll start out sparkle box of gifts for Jesus..

Daily Christmas books: 

Some days we'll add a snack, craft or activity to go along with the story like these felt puppets or the manger scenes below:
