thanks to the creative mind of veronica stringer and the helpful hints from alora hamilton, i was able to make this advent calendar for christmas. it has been such a sweet time to talk about who God is in preparation to celebrate the birth of Jesus this Christmas. the calendar is still a work in progress but here is a picture.
the three of us opened presents on saturday morning. we had a great time together. emsleigh loved her new toy. she can't move it yet, but she loves to just sit on it. in the first picture you can see three books. these are three little books by debbie anderson called Jesus Loves Me, Jesus is with Me, and Jesus Loves the Little Children. i highly recommend them, i hope emsleigh likes them as much as i do!
we are off to texas for Christmas with my family and will be back to kansas city to ring in the new year with jeremiah's family.
