Sing a carol, give a cheer... Christmas day is almost here!
The tree is up.
The stockings are hung.
We've prayed all of the O Antiphons.
We've sent some cards and received lots more.
This cheerful guy sits outside our door.
We've shopped and baked and crafted and wrapped...
...and played in the snow until our faces were chapped.
We've been around town to sites full of lights.
Busy fun days and wonder-filled nights.
Stories and specials and treats and trains...
...have lifted our spirits and filled our brains.
We can hardly wait any longer to say,
I hope you like this peek at what we've been up to for the past few weeks! We've finished up gymnastics, art, co-op, Good Shepherd, and our homeschool studies. We've been learning about Christmas Around the World. We've been praying the Jesse Tree, Advent Wreath, and O Antiphons. We've been singing tons of Christmas songs.
There are so many wonderful things to see and do around Columbus at this time of year. We've seen beautiful train displays at our library and COSI. We've visited the life-size Nativity display downtown. Tonight we're headed to the spectacular light display at the zoo.
A note about the boys' stockings -- Every year we add another decoration which symbolizes something special from that year. This year we added mementos from our trip to Disney.
Thanks Aunt Kay for the awesome penguin inflatable. He looks so cute on our porch!
I hope you're all enjoying these holy holidays. More soon....
