Our Advent

For Advent this year we read through A Holy Experience's advent.  The writer there so graciously shared this with her readers.  It took us from the beginning of God's story to the birth of his son.  It was a neat way to go though the Bible leading up to the birth of Jesus. We found a small tree and used it as our advent tree.  The tree skirt is a colorful wrap sent all the way from Ecuador!

One other thing we enjoyed doing each night was to read through Bartholomew's Passage.  Last year we read through Jothem's Journey.  These books are so good.  It is really hard to stop with just one chapter!  I encourage all families to read these aloud together for advent!
