Advent Calender

December 12th: "Tattoo yourselves!"
Mam had some pads of temporary Christmas tattoos, so we put some on!

Love The Bards/Rebekah (the very behind blogger.)

December 11th: "Read Matthew's Gospel birth of Christ."

No pictures again, its hard to get everyone to pay attention to taking pictures anyways.

December 10th: "Attend the Chapel Christmas musical."
Esther sings in the choir at our church the Chapel. So she sang in the choir in the musical. It was great! 
Unfortunately, I forgot the camera at home so we have no pictures of her singing. Sorry!

December 9th: "Make gingerbread houses!"
This was a very fun one!




Esther working on the foundations of her house. 


My (Rebekah) house.


Esther's house. Isn't it great?!


And her little bird made of Mike N Ikes and toothpicks. So cute!


Hunter's house. He spent most of his time making a sodium chloride ion with toothpicks and gumdrops; a skill he learned in his chemistry class. 


This is mama. In a onesie. Yes, this was a hand-me-down from a friend. It was for Esther.

December 7th: "Attend library program."

Unfortunately, I have a class 6 to 9pm on Wednesdays, so I could not go to the library program. So no pictures for this day sadly. But Esther did tell me about it and it seems like they had a lot of fun. She made crafts and listened to stories. 

Love, The Bards/Rebekah

December 6th: "Make homemade hot cocoa and watch Rudolf" This was a fun one! All of us got to sit around in our living room with the Christmas tree lit and watch this holiday classic, with hot cocoa in our hands.

Hunter received a puzzle, Lydia (17) received a set of speakers for her ipod. I, Rebekah, received a flash light.
