We're having a slow start to Advent this year, taking our time to shift out of Thanksgiving mode.
Most people celebrate Advent by beginning on the fourth Sunday before Christmas. I believe that is what the churches do so that church going people have four Sundays to celebrate. Others begin on the first of December with Advent calendars that have 24 doors. I like to begin on the fourth Sunday, but it tends to feel like we're still in Thanksgiving mood.
