So, this year at the Doyle's house we are doing something new. Well, new to use. An advent calender. Growing up I always had the type that you would open a window every day and get a chocolate. Inspired by others I decided to do a hands on approach. Every day we will be doing a fun Christmas(winter) activity(almost all stolen from my friend Marie). Today we decorated the doors to look like gifts. Other things include making a wreath with Christmas balls, putting up Christmas lights(something I normally don't do), baking, and then delivering our goods to others. Along with the advent calender will be reviewing prophecies from the old testament and their fulfillment in Christ. Then Christmas day we plan to have a cake for Jesus and sing him happy birthday. So what are your plans?
