Advent Calendar
I had a small heart attack when I realised it is just less than 5 weeks to Christmas!! We decided to make a advent calendar using (mostly) recycled materials (naturally!!) I painted the tree and the kids took turns at numbering the tree up to 25 and gluing the numbers into place on the tree. Dad drew names from the 'hat' to see who gets to put the first decoration on the tree! We made decorations from cardboard and I'm going to suprise the kids with a special star to put on the tree that will say "Jesus is the reason for the season" or something to that effect! Over the next few days we will be adding more detail to the poster and the kids are currently counting down to the first of Dec when we will put up the tree...
