The big girls played their first piano recital Sunday afternoon. They did a great job!
At The Parsonage
December 17th, 2016 by Aubri
It’s Saturday and cold and windy and icy and there’s some snow blowing around. This was going to be our busiest day of the year but here we are doing nothing. The kids got to working on invitations to their Christmas Program for mom and dad they’ll be performing on Christmas day and there were other crafts as is typical at our house. Some paper snowflakes and I guess a lion’s mane? And this….
A gorgeous ring from Gerhardt, Christmas comes early for me!
Advent Thus Far
December 15th, 2016 by Aubri
Advent is almost gone and Christmas is coming. It has passed quickly and left me with a sense of stumbling through the days trying here and there to throw some Advent memories at the kids as time and energy allow. I’ve made it to one Advent Vesper service but have sent some of the babies to these despite my staying home.
We’ve hung 2 Jesse Tree ornaments and had a few more evening Bible times but that’s about it. We’ve mostly remembered each evening to open our wooden Advent calendar but have forgotten many nights only to have to catch up the next night. The kids haven’t seemed to mind getting to open 2 or 3 doors at a time though.
