Christmas!


Ward Christmas Party:

 Our ward has the neat tradition of acting out the nativity while the audience sings a Primary Christmas song. Ava makes a cute little angel!
And Owen looked very wise in his shorts & boots :).


Dipping Grandma's Yummy Chocolates:
After my mom was done making her fancy, perfect chocolates to sell, she let her grandkids dip some chocolates. 
 Having your hands covered in chocolate is awesome.
Owen got in on the action too.
 And Isaac liked the headband :).


 Christmas Eve:
 New baby smiles are something else!

 Ava is a lucky girl and gets to take dance lessons from her Grandma so for part of our Christmas Eve program Madalyn, Ava, & Cora did a cute dance.
 And Grandma read a Christmas story by candlelight.


When we got home before bed we read the Christmas story from the Bible.  It was especially neat to have a newborn to play the part of baby Jesus.  Christmas with a new baby is such a sweet experience.
 Lot of love for this little girl.

Christmas Morning: 

Owen got a lot stronger
 Lucky for Ava- I got to go to the American Girl Doll warehouse sale with Lexie in the summer so Ava got just what she always wanted.  
And Isaac loved Owen's new shoes. 

The Book Find:



I love that my kids are getting old enough to remember, understand and look forward to the bookfind.  It's such a fun tradition!    


It definitely was a Happy Holidays!
