It's here....

The Christmas season has snuck up on me once again...Where does the time go?? I can't believe that it is that time of year again...I am trying to get myself motivated...trying to get some things out here and there (so it is not totally overwhelming doing it all at once), so I would say right now I am pittleling (sp?)...
I started by hanging this...
I always (well, I say always, but since we have lived here) put these...
on my dining room windows...and I am starting now to work on my mantle...
I always go back and add in some fresh greens but in fear that they will be D-E-A-D by Christmas, I am holding off right now...
This morning at preschool, we had a great devotion and to sum it all up, it basically was about enjoying the SEASON and do not get stressed and overwhelmed by all the STUFF, so this holiday season I am going to remember that & most importantly remember HIM...
I am teaching Mackenzie that it is not all about the gifts as we share 3 gifts this year with her and may she learn the true meaning of CHRISTmas...

Every year, our church starts the season with an Advent Festival...it was one of the best years last night...Mackenzie always has the best time making things there...this year, we made this...
which I heart....I have been wanting to get a Advent calendar & what better one could I get than the one that we made together last night!!!
May you have a HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTmas season!!
