December 8th





































Today was one of the most fun evenings yet but I tried to do a little too much! After being sick in bed most of the day, I was able to get up and do some things around the house and then have a little fun as a family! Day 8 ornament was the Ten Commandments and Big B shared how Moses went up on the mountain and God wrote the ten commandments and then while he was there the Israelites were grumbling and building idols. Moses became angry and the ten commandments broke and he had to go back up to get them again. My memory is not remembering everything else! Our day eight wrapped item was hot chocolate with a cup for each of the kids to keep, and ornaments that we all painted and we listened to a book on tape called Ordinary Baby Extraordinary Gift! The kids have also been doing the advent calendars. We have three different ones; one in a book, one on a paper, and a Playskool one where the kids open a box each day and it has a different piece to add to a set up Santa's workshop. The kids seems to love this one. Even Andrea wants to open a box too. We also have been trying to pray for our friends and family as we get a Christmas card from them. This has been exciting too!
