A Few Christmas Traditions

A few years ago we started the tradition of giving the kids each (then it was just Hannah :)) a Christmas book each year.  It's been fun to pull them out and read them each year.  My mops group has given us a book on several occasions...this year each of the kids got an arch book...and they love them!

 We have been lighting the candles in our advent wreath every day during advent.  It's hard to believe we are so close to Christmas.  This week we are on the angel candle and are reading verses about the angels part in the Christmas story.  We also picked a Christmas hymn each week to teach Hannah.  This year she learned "Crown Him King of Kings", "Silent Night",  Angels We have Heard on High" and "Hark the Harold Angels Sing".  It's been a great way to celebrate Christ's birth!  

What are some of your family Christmas traditions?
