Advent: Day 8

Lego Advent Calendar:
Bible Verses: worshipped and presented gifts by kings

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles
Will bring presents;
The kings of Sheba and Seba
Will offer gifts Psalm 72:10

And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 
Matthew 2:11

Activity:
attend the middleton christmas parade

we met up with our friends for the christmas parade in middleton
it was a tad chilly but perfect for the parade
there were even snow flurries falling during the parade... it was perfect!

 cooper and mauryn waiting for the parade to start

 waiting for the first floats and CANDY

 the big girls snuggled up for the parade

 mauryn was loving the parade... waving to people and the floats and collecting the candy

 cooper was cracking us up with his fish net as his candy holder/catcher
i think the kids were able to get more candy because people on the floats were trying to get candy into that net :o)

 the christmas parade wouldn't be the christmas parade without an appearance by santa

My parents live in Middleton and we've never been to the Christmas parade! I love the idea of using the fishing net to snag candy!
