Days 5, 6 & 7 of the Advent Angel...and SNOW!

On the morning of Day 5, the Angel left the classic movie "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer." Day 6 was a different kind of gift...

Saturday our kids were, well...out of sorts. There was arguing and bickering, whining and disobeying. The Advent Angel sure as heck didn't think they deserved anything on Sunday morning. So, when the kids opened up the little box on Sunday, they were a bit suprised:

I know, we're mean parents. But these kids seriously didn't deserve anything that morning. I think they were shocked that the Angel would actually not leave anything. Sunday they were sure acting a lot better!

And this morning, this beautiful Monday morning, the Lord blessed us with snow! Here in our little northern California town, where snow is just something we see when we go to the mountains, it was a beautiful sight to see.

And we've been informed by the Advent Angel that tonight we will be delighting in hot cocoa and playing a family game *in the dark*!
