Today's advent activity was buying a present for a needy child. It was really fun to take the kids to the store with me and let them help pick out presents for someone else. The store I work at has adopted a family for Christmas so we got a few things for their two-year-old daughter, new baby and grandmother. I have been trying to get the kids more into the spirit of giving, and I think they really enjoyed it. Although the concept of a budget is still a bit out of their grasp though...if it had been up to them, that family would be having a really good Christmas!!
Here is our funny family picture that we took before going to church yesterday. Check out Lincoln's face! That is what he does when we say, "Smile!"

Lincoln is such a goof! Silly kid! I was chuckling at Isaac's face too. Typical 8 year old boy!
I forgot to tell you how cute the girls dresses are! They both were acting like such cute little princesses at Church yesterday!
Hey Lindsay: Yes, I check in on your blog often to see what is going on. Cute family. We do gingerbread houses every year and I have started hot glueing them together to speed things along. Just a thought. Merry Christmas, Shawn
What a great picture; Lincoln's face is perfect! (Your tree is beautiful, by the way.)
