Christmas Advent

So it is Christmas, and what have you done?

Well I have been inspired by all of the beautiful advent calendars that have been floating around on the internet lately, so I thought I would share mine with you.  I must confess I made it a couple of years ago, but it still makes me smile every time I put it up at Christmas, as I look at the image on it and remember the Saviours birth.

It was made at a Womens Craft Activity at my Church a couple of years ago ( with some additional help from my mother).
I wanted to make an advent that would help my family remember the true meaning of Christmas as they took a treat from it each day.  This year I have also added a scripture for each day about the First Christmas.

So what have you been up to this Christmas? What Family Traditions happen at your place?
