Christmas Activities

There are so many fun things going on this time of year.  Sometimes it is hard to fit them all in.  This year, we didn't get to everything we wanted, and I guess that is okay.  But here are a few of the things we did do:

Gingerbread house making at the library:

We went with all our neighbor friends and had a great time.  The moms ended up talking afterward for nearly two hours.  We have such great neighbors!

Decorating cookies:
Grandma brought the cookies this year and the kids still love this tradition of decorating cookies. 

Nursing home visit:
After school got out we went to a local nursing home to play for the residents.  The kids had worked so hard to get music ready for the nativity festival, it seemed like a good idea to let them perform again. 

We also went to our neighborhood Christmas party (photos to come, I hope), helped out with the ward Christmas party program, and hosted a Youth Fireside at our home.  Busy, busy time of year.
