As I get older Christmas seems to come faster and there are alot of things that I don’t do, that I used to do. This year just seemed very busy and some things like sending out cards didn’t get done but we have had a nice holiday and thought I would share a few pictures so far.
Our first batch of peanut butter balls this year.
We had a Christmas Advent wreath. We have been reading an advent story and the candles are lit each either day or each Sunday.
This is the advent story that we have been reading this year. It follows and young man in Jesus’ time and his adventure as he is taken through the Holy land and finally ends up at Bethlehem on Christmas day and the birth of the Messiah.
Mandy set up the Nativity scene this year. They are both getting so big and this seemed like something she would like to do. She did a good job, I think.
We also made Gingerbread houses for FHE last week. They both made one and they are both interesting.
Step one and step two.
Nathan’s house – later he stuck the gingerbread man up on the roof, like Santa. Mandy’s house -
I guess I need to get another picture of hers. She has a walk way and the same design on one roof and the other and she was very meticulous, of course!
I will need to post other pictures of Christmas Eve and Christmas day but Happy Holidays to all!
