Five On Friday:Epiphany

1. We celebrated the 12th day of Christmas, Epiphany, the Three Wise Men's arrival to visit Jesus this week.
2. As part of the celebration, the boys also wanted to finish a "manger" art project we received as a gift.

3. The tradition is that with the nativity set, the wise men (who have been on one side of the mantel) finally reach the stable so we move the figures there. We listen to our Adorenaments Music since the 1st day of Christmas and hang the Adorenaments on the tree. Put to fun music are Names of Jesus. The Adorements are ornaments that depict 12 scripture names for Jesus: The Lion of Judah, The door, Living Water, Bread of Life, Savior, Lamb of God. It's a wonderful extension of Christmas time and draw out the celebration as long as we can. http://www.familylife.com/site/apps/nl/content3.asp?c=dnJHKLNnFoG&b=3584679&ct=4639289

4. The music brings me peace.

5. The older son suggested we include a pillow fight as part of our celebration!
