Advent

the very best thing we do the whole holiday season:

Photobucket

reading "a family advent celebration" (by jon) (emphatically) and lighting the advent wreath.

Photobucket

hearts stay focused.

Photobucket

and happy.

Photobucket

carols are sung.

Photobucket

scripture is read.

Photobucket

sigh.

Photobucket

love.

Photobucket

dessert gets eaten.

Photobucket

huff and puff and blow the flames out.

Photobucket

and then...

Photobucket

dance party!

Photobucket

oh yeah.

Photobucket

this is the life.

Great idea, friend. I need to get that book for next year. This year, it's all we can do to point to baby Jesus in the picture Bible :)
