It's that time of year again and the girls were just in the Hawaii Kai Holiday parade with Papa and now they are getting ready for their school advent walk and Julia for her Christmas Play (she wants to be the angel and hold the star).
The Advent Walk is pretty cool the lights get turned off so that the Children can light a candle themselves and it turns out to be this really pretty spiral design. http://www.ourbigearth.com/2009/11/28/seeking-the-light-and-the-warmth-with-advent/ more accurately describes the event. Last year Julia was a little confused so the teacher helped her out a little bit, one kid walked backwards and one girl had a close call with a candle and her dress. We may end up seeing "Honolulu City Lights" afterward on trolley. I saw a groupon for it so maybe we'll do that to get into the holiday spirit.
I was thinking of doing water color Holiday Cards with the girls and also got some Christmas sheet music to play on our keyboard. Julia and I got a chance to test it out in the living room over the weekend. The music is one of my favorite parts of this time of year; music and hot drinks.
