The day before Thanksgiving we went to the Fantasy of Trees with some friends. It was so pretty and fun a great way to get into the Christmas season.
Last week we got a little snow. Reid and Brooke (mostly Reid) built a snowman, wnet sledding, and built a snow castle all within like 3 1/2 hrs. you have to move fast around here as it was all melted by that night. Owen loved the snow and had a ball playing in it, Brooke not so much, our Utah trip is going to be interesting!
We've made lots of treats with the intention of giving them all away, but mostly we've eaten them. We also had some friends come over and make gingerbread houses. Brooke had a ball decorating hers. I was surprised how well she did at decorating the house and not eating the candy. But as soon as she was done true to her nature she immediately said "so, can I eat it now?"
For our ward Christmas party they had all the kids dress up as different characters from the Nativity. The nursery kids were the manger animals and Brooke wanted to be a camel. It was an interesting costume, but she knew what she was even if no one else did. It was really cute having the kids act it out and they all loved it.
We also went to a Christmas parade with some friends. I love Christmas parades even if they are really cold. This one is especially great because they give out a TON of candy, just what we need really! Anyways we all had a good time.
Whew! That is a lot of stuff we've been doing! I hope you guys have all been busy enjoying the Christmas season as well! Merry Christmas!
