Its been a little quiet here...been busy busy busy...

Awhile ago I posted on chocolate biscuits that we had baked as gifts...

Although we homeschool there are many lovely people who pour into my childrens lives...gymnastic coaches, sport coaches, music teachers, woodwork teachers...

well we are Thankful for them and like to bless them with a little gift at year end...

These are our cards, we all have a hand in them...baby Jesus is done with finger prints, then my knight drew in the manger and straw...cute little sister loves to punch the stars...

and mom puts it all together...

Advent 2012

 We made an advent calendar this year... 

an exciting time as we count down the days to the celebration of our Saviours birth...

(mom had to do quite a bit as my knight fractured his collar bone last week!) 
Each little character is a toilet roll inner, and inside is a little suprise for my knight and his cute sister...bath beans, bath fizzies and choccies...

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. " 

Isaiah 9 verse 6

"And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father."

Philippians 2 verses 8 - 11

AMEN
