This is a wonderful time we share each year. We love to read as a family and to spend time with each other.
What we typically do is gather in the living room with a fire in the fire place and mom and dad take turns reading from the scriptures and the prophecies about Jesus’ birth. We have a series of Advent books we love to read at Christmastime. We shared Christmas Eve with our grand parents; Grandma and Grandpa Brown, and Gaumi and Poppa Larry Randall. Our family opened presents and these are the things we gave to each other: A kitchen set for the little ones, a red coat for mom from Gaumi and Poppa, A telescope, and the biggest most fluffy slippers you have ever seen from dad to mom (mom bought herself some slippers also because she thought that dad might have forgotten to get her something;) One more highlight of this year is that our Great Grandmother Dino got to stay with us through Christmas! she's so fun!
A week or two before the 25th we had a Happy Birthday Jesus party with all of our friends!
Happy Birthday Jesus Party—Singing carols
Time slows down and that's what we love the most!
