Advent 2008





One family tradition we have started and kept the last couple years is a celebration of Advent every night leading up to Christmas. We have a couple different books with sort passages we read (either a daily devotion from "Family Celebrations at Christmas" or a page of "What Nick & Holly Found in Grandpa's Attic" - an interactive book with 12 ornaments reminding us of 12 aspects of Jesus Christ). Its great for both the adults and kids to review these Bible stories and to remember how and why Jesus came to us as a child! We progressively light the candles each week - you can see how much the kids enjoy that in the pictures.
