Advent

We've never done Advent before, but I'm excited to start! I found this book "Celebrating Advent". It's a two year book. The first year you make an Advent tree and the second year you do a Jesse Tree. There's reading and follow up questions and then we put a symbol on the tree. The kids have colored the symbols. We also put together an advent wreath. I stole the rock idea from Brandy! The rocks are from Forks, so my favorite peaceful place with the Advent candles! I'm so excited to get started tonight!

I love the advent "wreath" and I hope the devotional works out great! What a wonderful way to prepare for Christmas as a family!
