Season's Greetings!!

It is hard to believe it is December already. This year has just flown by!!! As I look at my calendar I wonder how and when I will get everything done ready for Christmas. We were lucky to get our Christmas trees and decorations up on Thanksgiving weekend. Now we start with activities every weekend at church leading up to Christmas.

This past weekend was a busy one, I had a craft show Saturday morning. It was not as successful as the last one, but I was able to hand out some of my flyer's. Saturday night we had a confirmation class from 6-11pm. We made pizza's, and I got to help the kids decorated their prayer boxes. The kids really enjoyed the scrapbooking part. So this coming Sunday I am going to work with them on making cards for their mentors.

Sunday we were honored to be asked to light the first candle on advent wreath. We all stood in front of the congregation as I did the reading then Ian lite the candle. It always give me a wonderful feeling to be involved at that level especially during the holidays. Sunday afternoon was a nice lazy afternoon, I was able to get some scrapbooking done.

I will admit that I don't have all my Christmas shopping done!!! I feel that if I start too early I tend to spend more, as I will keep buying things I see!!! Plus, the kids can't snoop and find the gifts!! I am not too worried, I still have a couple of weeks.

So to spread my Christmas cheer here are pictures of our 3 (yes 3) Christmas trees!! We have our Star Wars tree, my traditional tree, and the new tree this year is dedicated to Christ's mom. We have her ornaments and put them on their own tree!!
