We had our yearly progressive dinner with the neighborhood kids! We go to four houses -- ours being the last -- dessert... We received some sad news on this night... The Addison's are putting their house on the market... We were all sad to hear it but happy for them! Here are all the kids lined up -- 8 total kids -- 3 girls and 5 boys!
The progressive dinner happened on a Sunday during Advent this year, so we decided to do our celebration with all 4 of the families!
Beginning with a prayer
The Johnson's lighting the first candle
The Royed's lighting the second candle
The Herman's lighting the third candle
The Addison's lighting the fourth and final candle
After the Advent celebration, we had some artwork for the kids to do! They had a lot of fun making their Santas!
