A last game for cheering |
We're still in Advent, so it's time to repent and prepare ourselves for Christ's coming, but by the third week of Advent, we can also rejoice. This is about the time that we put up the Christmas tree, get some shopping and gift-wrapping done, and rev up the family time.
Let's start with family...

There's more than one birthday in December! |
then go to Christmas preparations
First we put up a small tree but then we decided that we really wanted the larger tree. So we moved the smaller one into the toy room (it was already completely decorated, after all) and put up the bigger tree in the family room.
Each one is against the French door separating the rooms, and it appears that there's a reflection in the glass. But that's really the second tree glowing through. It's been fun seeing everyone's reaction when they realize they're looking at two trees. It's really odd because the small tree has colored lights and the bigger one has white lights.
The kids are loving it! |
In the meantime...
