Here's an excerpt from our pastor's Sunday message about kerygma:

Kerygma means "to proclaim" or "to announce."


 If we were asked, “What is the Gospel? What is the good news? What is it you believe as a Catholic?” how would we answer? Where can we find the most basic proclamation of kerygma, which goes even beyond words? Is there a symbol which tells the story? Yes! A crucifix. 

When we look upon a crucifix we are seeing not simply a dead man on a piece of wood. That man upon the cross is God: God is on that cross for you! God took our human weakness, our sins, our pain, our sorrows, and even our death, and made it His own. God took our humanity to Himself so that out of love He could die for each one of us.

........

“Proclaim the joyful message that our God is coming to earth!” This is the message of the Advent Season: God comes to take each of us to Himself that we might be His for eternity.




Have a great first Sunday of advent.
Share how you all are celebrating this "waiting" season. Any family traditions? Are you doing an advent calendar? Elf on the shelf? jesse tree? advent prayer ring?

Our  Christmas stockings are up. The small tree is decorated. I still haven't decided how we will  celebrate advent. Is lighting the advent candles enough? I am looking for a craft or project to do with the kids throughout advent. please share and give us some ideas. something that a toddler, preschooler and first grader could all do with me and Lucy.




copy the look!

what we wore on thanksgiving {linkup}








Hubs called my faux leather pants -- clubbing pants. whaaaa? really?







aztec cardi via hautelook || similar
Chanel
pearls, similar
peplum top, similar


on Lucy:
dress via zulily || found a similar one!
soft sole mocs c/o Freshly Picked


Ms. Lucy joined me on our OOTD photos! It was difficult to make her look at the cam. She was more interested with the cars passing by... Her sibs were also napping so there was no one making goofy faces to make her giggle. Now you know why OOTD photos are all about me. Hubs usually snap them when babies are napping.


Please link up your Thanksgiving outfits and feast here!
Did you cook today? What did you make? I made this.... and steak pepper from this cookbook.... and mushroom asparagus risotto from costco cookbook...


here's a summary of my snapchat craziness...
we had a Filipino feast. My mom baked turkey legs instead of the entire turkey. My fam are true Filipinos. they like dark meat.


one weird confession: I eat deli turkey meat. I eat ground turkey. But I don't eat turkey leg or turkey breast or any meat from the Thanksgiving bird.... weird. just weird. I don't like the smell. (do you know what I am talking about??? even with Chicken breast, it has to be cooked a certain way, baked a certain way with specific spices, grilled a certain way or else I can smell something and I won't eat it!)

alrighty, I hope you join the link up. I am excited to your Thanksgiving outfits and feast!

fit for a princess {photo diary}

Is it a surprise that my Isabel asked for a princess party?

I am thankful she is not into pinterest yet... or else she would have expected more from what we gave her (ha!) all in all, she really just wanted to celebrate with her friends. She wanted to play and have a princess party.

Thank you to my husband for picking up the cake! whew glad I ordered it before my ward week started.

Thank you to my mom for the princess cake plates, princess balloon and putting together the treat bags. 

Thank you to my MIL for the Ella dress (similar here). 

Thank you to my FIL for taking photos!

Thank you to Isabel's friends for celebrating and eating cake with her!

























Check out the thinker -- aka the pouter.
