I received this today from Homeschool Library Builder for those of us who want to do something for Advent but think of it at the last minute:
Each year around Dec. 2 do you find yourself lamenting that you were going to do an Advent this year but you forgot about it and with no time to get started you set the idea aside for next year…again?
Well, consider yourself REMINDED! Start this wonderful way to usher in the birth of Christ today! Get everything ready before Thanksgiving so that come the first day of Advent, NOVEMBER 28, you will be ready!
There are books and sites to go to about the Advent—find them today! HERE is one site that has lots of ideas from which to choose. (The calendar on the website is a 2008 one).
Our family has made more of an effort the last few years to be reminded of Christ’s birth! Every year, we’ve set up the Jesse Tree from Ann Voskamp. I can’t find it at the moment. Maybe the website is down. If I find the web-page, I’ll come and update it. It’s wonderful!
We’ve also read Jotham’s Journey last year and are looking forward to either reading it again or one of the other two books in the series.
How do you celebrate Advent?

We started Advent tonight.
I know, we’re silly but we know that we will miss somedays and if we finish early, we can just do it all over again! 
We read Matthew 1 tonight and sang, “Come Thou Precious Ransom, Come”.
I would love ideas that are just reading but fun for the kids. KWIM? Hubby doesnt like involved projects.
