2009 Advent
For any of you that know me... I am a TOTAL sucker for Nativity Scenes & Advent Calendars! I even got a new Nativity this Christmas from Mom & Dad! (thanks guys! I. LOVE. IT!)
I collect them both! & we enjoy them at the Christmas season. LOVE EM'!
One of my 2009 resolutions is to "Keep the 'Spirit of Christmas' alive" All throughout the year. I just love the feeling of the season. Seems to bring out the best in everyone.

More love, more generosity, more kindness, more patience, more smiles, Everything seems more wonderful! I want that all year long!!!
(even some of my Christmas "reminders" are not being put away this year)
(I am secretly hoping too, that this will also help me be more prepared when the actual Christmas Season rolls around in 2009; so that we can take the time to really enJOY it)

SO.... It is going to be Christmas @ the Allen home... ALL YEAR! Ü
Just look at what i came across today...
It is an invitation for an Advent Sew Along! I want ALL of you to play too! I just love this idea! Doesn't have to be a stocking... the point is to get your new advent calendar done for 2009!
I think that i AM going to use the stocking idea... only use my own pattern for the actual stocking.
So fun!
They are even providing us with a FREE tutorial!!
I can't WAIT to see what you come up with!

So, I WILL join you - but will you bug me about my progress, PLEASE? I have to be responsible to someone's nagging, or it won't get done!!! Thanks Jodi! What a fun idea!!!
