Continuing the holiday theme for the weekend, we kicked off our Christmas celebration on the First Sunday of Advent by setting up our Christmas tree.
The Kids enjoyed setting up the tree and eating popcorn.
Asa showing his University of Nebraska loyalties - a Husker Sweatshirt and Ornament - one of my favorites!
Miriam with of U of M (Minnesota) ornament; when I asked which team it was for she proudly announced - The Minnesota Tigers! Uh, no....it is actually the gophers, honey. Much sports education remains in our household!
In the end, everyone played a part in setting up the Christmas tree and had a blast.
Both of our girls have December birthdays, so a few years back Emily started the tradition of a "birthday tree". The girls have collected their ornaments over the years and have a way to make their birthdays festive and special.
What a gift to have this family tradition of celebrating advent to help our hearts begin to celebrate Christ's birth!
