When we were little, Mama would order an Advent calendar
every year and we would take turns opening the windows. Behind
each tiny window was a surprise – a picture or Bible verse. What
a great way to count down the days until the BIG DAY.
As I got older, I realized that anticipation can be just as much fun as the actual event. And that Christmas isn’t just about one day. It’s a whole season of family times and traditions, friends and food, music and laughter and sharing. So please enjoy my Advent calendar this month of December and we’ll celebrate the Christmas season together.

I could ever receive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had a hard time with the newsletter, though. I couldn't figure out if I wanted to read it or look at the pictures! What a wonderful job you did, Susan. I'm proud of
you. Love, Jenny -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
