Breakfast in Bethlehem

 Our Church has a Breakfast in Bethlehem each year and the children can dress up in costume and have their picture taken with the manger. It's fun for the children to be in fellowship for this special time of the year. They also have a craft and a story for the kids. This year mom helped with the story telling.
 Mom telling the Christmas Bible story for the Children with the Nativity that Dad and Lola had made last year for Christmas.

Zoo lights

We saw that the temperatures were about to drop so we headed over to Zoo lights while it was still 50 degrees:)

I hung this one up:)

Advent Begins~

It's cool when Advent begins on December 1st. Our church has a special service where we hang the greens. The fathers and sons hang the wreaths, the mothers and daughters light the candles and the children sing. It's lovely to hear the Christmas story read from the Bible and to have an hour of focus on the coming of the Lord Jesus. Our Advent adventure has begun!
