Holy Cow, this writing this down stuff can be difficult. Figured I better bulk this one together just to catch up!
We have been so big on the celebration of Jesus' birth.
3rd day we learned about the promise of Jesus told in Malachi. We talked about what a promise was. For Zach he listened and I showed him the pictures displayed in their kids bibles of the prophet Malachi.
For their treat we went and saw my Uncle Santa. Santa in our home is like Mickey Mouse or one of the Princesses. We go and see him each Christmas if he makes his way up here, and they look with awe as they do Buzz, Woody, Minnie and Belle! Its super cute and totally not confusing. It was a great treat for the kids as they also got to see their friends, share cookies that they had made with their friends and had a great time!
4th Day of Advent
Todays verses were about the Angel coming to Joseph to tell him about the baby that God was blessing Mary with. We talked about how the Angel needed to tell Joseph so that he could take good care of Mary while she had baby Jesus in her tummy. But that God was giving him a gift as well. Click here and Here to down load our craft for the day. We colored some presents that had different words that we discussed in our story. JOY, PEACE, LOVE, KINDNESS, GENTLENESS and PATIENCE

Their treat that day was a lunch out to Steak and Shake. We had a great time as a family, Steak and Shake does free meals for kids on the weekends, and they give them all kinds of goodies. So, we had a great time!
5th Day of Advent
Today we actually talked about the long journey that Mary and Joseph went through before they got to Bethlehem. We talked about how they had to travel because the Emperor told them they had to, but that Mary was about to have her baby. We ended the story talking about the KINDNESS of the Inn Keeper and how he gave them a place to stay despite the crowded city. Now we are waiting for the exciting moment of Jesus' arrival. I can't wait to share with my kids why it is so important for Jesus to be born which is why we are talking about his birth early on in advent.
Their treat today since Mondays are quite busy with kid activities was a cake pop from Starbucks! They love them, they are easy to eat and they are cheap! Birthday Cake is our favorite. So fun!
