The tree's up and all decked out with ornaments and lights.
A pinecone wreath was attempted - and failed. So I settled on pinecones and ornaments hung in front of the window and it makes me happy.
Candles are lite, Santa is sending presents via UPS, hot chocolate is being sipped and cookies are being consumed.
The home is coming along with decor and presents are being marked off lists but more than anything I'm preparing my heart for Jesus' birth. I've been reading an amazing advent devotional and trying to drink in all of the blessings that He has bestowed on me.
How are you preparing your home and heart for Christmas?
Whats the advent devotional you are doing? I'm doing one that I'm really not enjoying too much...
