Snowmen, family, & hope

Our house is decorated...has been for the past few weeks now.  We just hosted a Christmas party two days ago (we had a great time).  We are almost finished with advent story "Tabitha's Travels"...the past two years we were reading "Jotham's Journey" (I highly recommend these stories...they are really good).  Here are some pictures that I thought I would share with you...enjoy!

 Here is my snowmen collection (mom used to collect snowmen, but has given these guys to me :D)

Mamma let me decorate the top of our piano...what do you think?

I couldn't forget to add this little guy!  The sign says, "Snowmen will melt your heart"...and yes I believe that that is true :P

 Syd has been working on her Co-op photography homework...she had to take a self portrait.

 She and I were in the Christmas parade on November 6th...the theme as you can tell was Polar Express.

I was the classy hobo and Syd was the conductor :D

 Yours truly <3

What we are offered throughout our everyday lives, because in nine days 2,000 years ago, our Savior was born of a virgin and laid in a manger.  Then 33 years later was hung on the old rugged cross for our sins, and rose again three days later.

Well that's it for now m' friends!  I better go and finish making ginger snaps and freshen up for church tonight!

Serving HIM,

Alisha
