Preparing for Advent...



The boys and I went out this morning to the Dollar Store and got some pillar candles to make an Advent wreath. We tested it -- they all lit. Since Thanksgiving is so early this year and Advent starts the second Sunday after Thanksgiving, we are really organized and on the ball. I also was at the Catholic Bookstore/Gift Shop in our area on Saturday and got some booklets of Advent/Christmas activities to do with the boys. Now that Connell will be talking about Advent/Christmas at preschool and see the wreath during Masses that he attends with us, we figured that we better do some things at home as well to really prepare for Christ's birthday.
