Nate's Christmas tree
Nate had his first deer hunting experience a couple of weeks ago. He and Darren went with my dad. They didn't bring home a deer, but they had fun.
I almost hate to post this because we have horrible luck with pets, but we have a new kitten. The best thing about this kitten is that she found us. One morning we woke up to this constant, annoying meowing. I wanted to get the gun (not really), but then we found this sweet girl. She actually kind of looks like Bob.
Nate has participated in two Christmas programs - one at church and one at preschool.
At the preschool performance, he was a wise man.
Finally, we are trying our very best to focus on Christ and not let the busyness of the holiday season be a distraction from the true meaning of Christmas. Here are a few things that are helping us do this.
We did our first Jesse Tree last year. This year, a friend told me about this devotional. We are loving it.
I ordered this book through Nate's preschool. It is fantastic. Seriously.

I saw this cute nativity on Pinterest. I knew Nate would not want to color the entire thing at one time. So yesterday we started with Mary and will add a piece (or 2) each day until Christmas eve. This gives us another great opportunity each day to talk about the birth of Christ.
