Ward Christmas party.  Best party, ever.

16

Busy. Costco run, laundry, meals. I found the kids in the hula hoop.

Happy Holidays!  Grandma and Grandpa B. came to spend an evening on their way to Coons'.  Lucky for them, the kids' Christmas program was tonight, so we attended the event together.

 We played "Liars Dice" once home again.  Grandma B. is Maddie's twin.

Today I made the most lovely cinnamon rolls for Austin's church activity.

After watching the kids huddled around Austin to view guys game, I know what to buy him!

Happy birthday, Daddy-o.  He is 63 today, 30 years older than me.

Today I spent much of the day preparing for FHE with our friends and their five kids.  We performed the "Merry Christmas" program and made mangers, both activities found in the current Friend.

Exactly three weeks until I turn 33.  Today was a lovely Sabbath.  Maddie wanted cake for breakfast, and since we were the only ones awake, we ate cake.

Eddie filled the Little People manger with Wheat Thins for the hungry animals.

I sang in a trio in Sacrament meeting -- it went well.

We watched the Christmas devotional.   Only shot, the blurriness represents our reverence.

Today was busy!
Our little town has a Christmas parade every year.  The kids gathered plenty of candy.

 Maddie and Maisie had a dance party/recital this evening.

Austin took us to dinner -- inside a restaraunt.  What a treat.
