My friend Jen lent us her festive Advent Calendar as I’ve three grandchildren living with me right now. (And their parents) I’m sure the excitement level will increase as each day draws closer.
I was hard pressed to think of what to put in the pocket for the first day.
Ahhh, I’d purchased some Christmas colored M&Ms the other day at Aldi. Fortunately I had a lot of little mesh bags ( thank you for tip, Joanne)
I usually put my homemade knitting markers in the bags for knitting friends.
My five year old granddaughter said the calendar was good for math !
This evening we went to Nine lessons and Carols for Advent and the music was so beautiful at Calvary Episcopal Church in Shadyside.
His photo definitely captured the mood.
