Christmas Memories


We had a great ward party. Christopher and Alex helped tell the Christmas Story.
Rich, Brian, Markus and Blake sang at the ward party. They also went around to some houses in each others neighborhoods and to some of their Home Teaching Families. They sound great!


We had been able to drive around and look at Christmas lights. So we decided to take the opportunity to do so Christmas Eve. It was really fun. We went up to Crown Center and played around up there. We ate at Fritz's restaurant, checked out the water fountains by the mayor's Christmas Tree, drove to The Plaza, drove through Christmas Card Lane and ended the evening at the Penguin House.

 







We then came home and opened our Christmas pj's courtesy of Gma Kay and Gpa Joe.

t
We read lots of Christmas Stories. Christopher read "The Night Before Christmas". We read Luke 2 and watched a video about the Birth of Christ

Brogan finally got a real chair. He's spent the last few months pretending everything else in the house is his chair. He loves this thing and enjoys changing it into a bed.

Santa brought Alex and Christopher this Air Hockey table. It's become a family favorite.

All in all we had a fantastic time together as a family.
