We started our
Truth in the Tinsel Advent on December 1st. We are currently on day 3 and the kids and I are having a blast. They have already learned so much about the REAL reason we celebrate Christmas. It's not too late to join in the fun. You can still catch up or do an alternate schedule option. Head over to the
Truth in the Tinsel Facebook page to see all of the FUN we are having with people from all over the WORLD. I love seeing all of the crafts each child has done and how different each one looks.

I am not sure if anyone else is doing a
Truth in the Tinsel blog link up (I haven't seen one yet) so I thought I would start one. If your a blogger and participating in Truth in the Tinsel please feel free to link up your post! I will try to do this every Saturday until Christmas Eve!

Thanks for linking up to Manger Mondays!!
wonderful! I love it- and Fernbank Rocks!!! wish we could have gone with you- they needed some baby Jesus up in there- only thing wrong w Fernbank- but, I like to teach my children "the whole picture" so they know what else is "out there" :) It's a wonderful museum-
You and Rebecca need to come for a week! A whole week- to do homeschool, field trips (nature days at the beach) and SCRAPBOOKING! I have a scrapbook room- :) with big table space :) so we can play - . . . and it's a playroom. . . for the kids. . . so, come on and play. K? good. it's settled then. :)
