Gabe's birthday party was a great time. To those who couldn't make it - WE MISSED YOU! To those who could - such fun! Thanks for coming! Gaber turned one of course, and his party was a "puppy" theme.

I thought that was fair reasoning. We do however, mention that many families celebrate in that way, and that it is a game parents and children play just for fun. Our kids know not to tell other kids that Santa … [Read more...]
Advent Experience {Truth in the Tinsel}
I found a fun Advent resource by Amanda White with all kinds of great projects that walks you right through Advent! No more tedious planning! Perfect for the younger grades!I love that the scriptures are repeated several times throughout the month so that the kids really understand and remember the Truth!
