Advent began on Sunday. I did manage to get the candles and "wreath-like-arrangement" set up, and we lit the first one and read Isaiah 11:1-10 and sang the first verse of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel." I updated my Advent Playlist and got it posted here, and it is inspiring me, but...
Monday we had a full day at History Quest, including a play, "Columbus's Mistake," put on by the elementary and middle school groups.
Today was my older son's 13th birthday.
So, our Advent Keeping really begins tomorrow. Have I decided just exactly how we will be doing that? No. I have several internet windows open on my computer as well as a few pdf files, and there are a number of books stacked on my desk. I will have it figured out by the time my children get up tomorrow morning!
