Great Decorations

For Enrichment this week, we had our Christmas party. I was in charge of decorations with another sister from our ward. We had a good time putting together the fun evening!

Loved the tissue paper balls hanging above each table:

Thanks to all who helped with this fun evening!

Oh, Mr. Grinch

Last Thursday, Taylee performed, the song Mr. Grinch, at the Festival of Tree's. She did a great job for only having a couple of weeks to learn the routine!

In Search Of ...

...the Perfect Christmas Tree!!

While in Island Park for Thanksgiving, we all bundled up and headed into the forest to find the Perfect Christmas Tree. Our permit allowed us to find a tree up to 12 feet tall. We searched and searched!!

After walking and searching we decided this tree would do and could be our perfect Christmas Tree. (By this time the kids were tired and cold and we had to choose quickly! Notice Heath still cutting in the back ground)

The kids were sure they needed their own perfect tree's. So Heath cut them some branch tree's and made them all happy!

It may not be the perfect "Tree Lot" Christmas Tree and it may not hold our heavy ornaments very well, but we have a fresh tree straight from Island Park, we have found a new family tradition that we LOVE, and this year we found the perfect tree.

Letter's to Santa

Christmas is in full swing and we are excited for the Big Day!! For Family Home Evening we put Christmas Lights on the house and wrote letters to Santa's. I HOPE THESE KIDS WERE GOOD THIS YEAR! Taylee wants an I touch, Tydon wants a Pocket Rocket Motorcycle, Kamdon wants a Spiderman Scooter, 2 pack of cars from Walmart, and any other toy he sees on TV, and Kyler will simply be happy with whatever Santa chooses.

Tydon also want Santa to tell him what coal looks like because ... "he was just wondering."

(At this point is was Bedtime, can you tell)

"F" is for FEAST

For Preschool this week we had a FEAST with all the kids. They decorated their Pilgrims Vests and then we had a feast with all the fixin's (of course this was mostly for the mom's)!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
