It’s Time

We are on Christmas break, wahoo! 

Sleeping, eating, playing, and reading are the things topping our to-do list right now.

Merry Christmas!

Do you hear what I hear?

Where ever you live I’m sure you heard the trumpets from my house. 

Corbin found Chris’ old trumpets and could not wait to try them out.  So, he did and great news, he can make noise on it…how exciting

Chris actually busted out a tune and it sounded passable.  I mean that in the most impressed way.  For not having played in years and years and years he sounded great.

So, while I sat in my bed like a queen my court jesters entertained me with their interesting selection of trumpet music.

Do you also hear the sound of Christmas music coming from our house?  Oh, yeah, you probably heard that start in October, but now it’s blasting 24/7 for all to hear.  I love Christmas music!

We decorated the house and Corbin helped add a few finishing touches.  He made a countdown chain.  First, a pattern was created then, it was folded, and taped.  And like many other children he had to measure to see how long it was (2 feet if you are interested, or 24 inches if you would prefer it).

We also started lighting our advent calendar and doing some small Bible readings at night.  It’s something I did growing up and now we are starting it with Corbin.  It’s an awesome way to keep focused on Jesus’ birth when so many other things are vying for attention at Christmas.

Listen for the sounds of the seasons because they are in full swing, enjoy!
