In this post, I told you about an advent project I wanted to do for my family...something we could reuse every year to tell the story Jesus to our little boys...it's finished...or just begun. We will read a devotional every night from The Jesus Storybook Bible and each night we will put one ornament on the tree til December 25. I am going to make a birthday cake with my boys to celebrate Jesus' birthday. I hope you and your family have a special Christmas Advent too and remember why we celebrate this season!

| Our advent tree (set of trees I already had) with a Nativity my mom gave me (it was hers she bought a long, long time ago at the Mexican Market in downtown San Antonio) The ornaments are in the basket ready for each night til Christmas! |

| Our mantle...one thing I love about this old house is the wall to wall mantle. I have a collection of snowmen...gifts, things I found...even from when I was in college...it's been growing for quite a few years! I love putting up the garland and lights and adorning it with all my snowmen and then watching my boys in amazement of Christmas time! |

I LOVE your family pics on the mantle. Beautiful decor, too!
ReplyDeletethanks!!! I was looking through my stuff and some of it is from when I worked at Shepherd Shoppe! I'm glad I stuck with the same theme:)
