Christmas Traditions

Christmas was a whirlwind of activity. We tried to come up with some creative ideas to teach Noelle about Jesus and why we celebrate Christmas. We bought a kids book at Lifeway that tells the story of baby Jesus and the events that surrounded that day. We also had a "Happy Birthday Jesus" party Christmas day with a birthday cake and all. Noelle was my big helper. While making the cake, she kept asking me when Jesus was gonna show up to help eat His cake :) Oh the sweet innocence of a child! So refreshing yet humbling at the same time! Here are some pictures to document the occasion.

Noelle: "Just one more lick please."


"MMmmmm. Sweet frosting."



The cake. Not the prettiest thing but Noelle had fun helping :)
