Advent Preparations

For the first time ever, I feel like I'm at least a little prepared for Advent before it starts. This week between Christ the King and
Advent gives me a chance to catch my breath, especially since I'm not cooking Thanksgiving dinner (one of the things I'm thank-
ful for this year!). This year, our plans include two Jesse trees, one using ornaments from our homeschool group Jesse Tree swap, and the other, a handmade tree we won from our local Catholic radio station.
