Bible Verses:
Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel  Isaiah 7:14

“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:
and they shall call his name Immanuel” 
(which means, God with us). Matthew 1:22-23

Activity:
do a christmas puzzle

i bought a puzzle package that i thought was 4 puzzles that had a TOTAL of 500 hundred pieces.  um, no!  there are 4 puzzles and each puzzle has 500 pieces.  lesson learned, next time take the time to really read the package :o)

 so the puzzle task was a little daunting when we started but with handwork and focus from everyone, we finished that first puzzle in a day.  morgan and lance worked diligently on it for a hours on sunday.  the little kids helped out too. they would find pieces and help for a bit, wander off, and come back again to help later.  it was definitely a family effort.

 the kids loved it so much that the first puzzle has been put away and puzzle number two is now on the coffee table being worked on.  although this second puzzle is harder and is definitely going to take a few more days to complete.
