Congratulations to Ashley, who won our God Gave Us Christmas book giveaway!  Take a look at her crafty blog (and her adorable daughter)!  Thanks to everyone who entered!

Now, since I’ve been doing our attributes of God Advent series on a daily basis, I’ve missed being chatty and rambling in a “normal” post… so I’m going to chat your ear off for a minute.

About the Advent posts I’ve been doing – would anyone like me to make a tutorial on how to make the wooden ornaments?  It’s something that could be adapted for any number of ideas…  If there is any interest, I’ll write up a quick tutorial.

Also, I’m “behind” on my Advent crafting… I wanted to make an Advent calendar like this one here to put all my ornaments and little craft/activity slips of paper in – but I’ve only gotten as far as purchasing the fabric.  Ehem.  This will probably get done in January… so I guess I’ll have to unveil it next year.

I’m also thinking that I might have to keep adding on to the list of names and attributes of God each year – there are so many more that I didn’t think when I made my list, and I already knew I was leaving so many off.  So I’m excited to see how this could grow each year – the boys might be able to add more as they get to know God more themselves, too!

Amanda’s back from her very exciting extended weekend… be sure to watch her blog for updates about her time at Disney!

So that’s kind of what we’ve been up to… how about you guys?  How has your December been?
