We are enjoying our Advent book basket tradition and have started our first family Jesse Tree. The Jesse tree uses ornaments with symbols that represent the story of the genealogy of Jesus.
We have been adding one ornament for each day of Advent, which will lead us through the Old Testament to the birth of Jesus on Christmas day.
Our nativity set is out, waiting for Baby Jesus to arrive.
We light one candle on our wreath for each Sunday of Advent.
We are so blessed to have five stockings to hang up this year. I am overjoyed with our growing family. It is especially fun to be anticipating the birth of our Lord AND the birth of our family's new baby!
The kids are also enjoying their Little People advent calendar and nativity set. These are such great tools to get little ones involved in the liturgical season!
