Christmas Fun

Oh the JOY that Ernie was brought to Alana this year.
 The girls look for him each morning to see the mischief he has gotten himself into and then Alana will carry him around all day long!

 

 

I typically have the camera around everywhere I go so I am not sure how this Christmas season doesn't have much documentation. But it's been a wonderful month. We started some new traditions as well as kept around most of the old. Here are some of the highlights:

Opening a Christmas book each day of the month as our countdown to Christmas

Our chocolate Christmas countdown

Playing in the snow

Visiting the lights and reindeer at Thanksgiving point

Enjoying hot chocolate floats from TGP

Christmas cards in the mail

Dropping off treats to our neighbors and friends

The doorbell ringing and seeing friends drop by

FHE lessons on Christmas

Decorating the Tree and hanging the Christmas Star

Driving by our house lit up with Christmas lights

Listening to Christmas music and hearing the girls practice new Christmas songs they've learned at school

Wrapping presents and keeping secrets

Christmas shopping

Amazon deliveries

Watching Hallmark movies together

Hearing the excitement of the girls and most importantly

 

Reflecting on the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ
