Christmas Activities

A short wrap-up of Christmas activities:

Enoch had been asking all December to go to Temple Square and we knew if it didn't happen tonight, it wasn't going to happen.  Since Guard was feeling under the weather and Gavin just went with the Teachers, Greg took Enoch and Kate.  They had a wonderful time!
Enoch liked the white lights and Kate liked the pink. Everyone stayed warm and had a great time.  Unfortunately by the time they got home, Kate had come down with the same thing Guard had.  We then went through five days of extremely high fevers and croup.  Miserable!

We gathered with the Randall cousins to decorate sugar cookies.  Lots of frosting and sprinkles and fun this morning.
 We have been hit by some major snowstorms this Christmas season.  We spent some time shoveling snow.  When you do it as a family, it is so much fun!
Our family loves doing Christmas crackers!  I make and fill them with candy so I know the kids will like them.  They love to pop them and see what's inside.  It's a FHE we all look forward to in December.
December is so busy!  We try to not overwhelm ourselves and keep the focus on Christ, but it is also great to do a few fun things with the family.
