Tonight we started advent. This is a celebration of the four Sundays before Christmas preparing our hearts for the birth of jesus. The first of four candles is the candle of hope. Maddie helped light it tonight! She was so excited! We then read a few bible verses and sang a Christmas song! It is a tradition I grew up with and I am thrilled to be continuing it with my family! This truly is a blessed time of year!!
Thanksgiving week! November 24, 2008
Emilie, mama, and Braden made trip up Sunday night to spend some time. The girls had such a wonderful time!
I am so terrible as I let maddie fall a sleep without getting any pictures.
We still have a fun visit none the less!
