Advent Day 2-5

Anna is very much into dolls.  Her favorite doll, a reborn, named Amelia turned a year old, and she insisted that we celebrate her birthday with cake!

We also painted ornaments for the tree.

 

 

Girls wrote a letter to Santa.  Anna watched a Youtube video that showed her how to draw Santa and his reindeer.  Bub had a stomach bug, and slept on the couch most of the day.

 

Mason loved his candy cane, and even said "cheese" for the camera.

Advent Day 1

We started Advet today, and guess what? We got our very own Elf on the Shelf.  The girls were so excited, and loved seeing his powder sugar foot prints leading to today's perch. 

 It seems as though he put himself in a glass vase, so that the girls wouldn't

 break the touching rules, before knowing about them.

 

To name our elf, we all put in two names to be drawn out of a hat. The Elf would have a first name and middle name, so we drew two.  The list of names that

 were put in the hat were:

 

Anna: Peppermint & Candy Cane

Trinity: Elfie & Lollipop

Bub: Eddie & Bernard

Mason: Choo Choo ( I put that in for him, because he says it all the time)

Me: Sprinkles & Cracker Jack

Dad: Buddy & Clarke

 

The name of our Elf is...drum roll please...

 

Buddy Choo Choo

 

Needless to say, Trin was a little upset, and didn't quite get what we were doing.  She didn't understand why she didn't get to draw her names out of the hat.  The tears quickly stopped once we reminded her that Buddy Choo Choo reported everything to Santa.

 

Trinity did spark a conversation today about Jesus, saying that it's so nice that Jesus knows everything about you without having to have a magic elf. She said that she can just talk to Him, and He can hear her, and He loves her, and protects her. She also mentioned that she really likes the elf, but just thought of those things and that's why Jesus is better.

I told her she was so smart, and exactly right!

Jesus is way better!

 

Happy Advent

 

Christmas card addresses

  

 

This year I ordered my Christmas cards early, thanks to a Groupon

 I bought that forced me too! ;)

They came in the mail today, and I am really pleased with them!

I can't wait to start addressing them!

 

This year one of my Mommy groups moved to Facebook,

and sadly, all of my addresses for them were on our old

 site. (miss you girls!)  I've also realized that my address book does not

 have all of our family and friends current addresses.  If you are

 family, a friend, or a reader of my blog, send me your address,

and I will make sure I get a card mailed out to you!

Happy 5th Birthday 11/12/12

Five years ago today, on our 11th wedding anniversary, we welcomed Trinity into the world.

 

She is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.
