As I sat down to blog about our Christmas I realized that I have completely neglected to post pictures from any of our other December activities. Here is a "quick" recap of our month leading up to Christmas.
We set up and decorated our Christmas tree.
We played dress up.
Me made a countdown chain that first counted down to Christmas and then to C's birthday.
We made snowflakes. Check out the Star Wars ones.
GrandMary joined us at the Victorian Streetwalk.
The kids favorite part of the streetwalk is getting their faces painted, so we got there early and they were the 2nd or 3rd kids in line. :-)
We enjoyed Christmas through the eyes of an 11 month old.
We were in charge of the music for our church Christmas party and Matt sang "Angels We Have Heard on High" with 3 other men.
We went to see a performance of Nutcracker that was put on by the dance school that C goes to. GrandMary went with us and beforehand we went out for dinner and then to see the downtown Saratoga Santa and since we were the only ones there we got to chat with him for a good 15 min.
One night we got about 2-3feet of snow and was still coming down in the morning, so church was cancelled for the day.
The next Sunday we tried to get a nice picture of the kids in their matching Christmas outfits.
Our Elf on the Shelf, Clever, was up to no good all month.
On Christmas Eve, just in time to give some to Santa, we made and decorated cookies.
K kept licking the frosting from his fingers/knife/cookies ...
... but I know where he gets it from. :-)
Looking back, it has been a great month!
