Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Christmas Christmas every where we look!

We got our tree and lights up on the Weekend after Thanksgiving and we haven't looked back, it's full on Christmas mode around here.   Advent Calendars, Advent Daily Bible readings, Christmas Jammies, Jingle Jam at Church, Gingerbread House making at the Library, Santa's Cottage kids shopping at school, Santa's Workshop, Boys Christmas program, Breakfast with Santa, lots of shopping and present wrapping, and Christmas music on in the house and car 24/7!!!


WE LOVE MAKING GINGERBREAD HOUSES AT THE LIBRARY!!
