Dec. 6th:
For a Family Home Evening, we decided to go shopping for the missionaries in our family & make them some fun packages for Christmas. We had lots of fun choosing candies, cookies, & other treats & some fun little gifts, too! The boys decorated the packages, we filled the boxes with goodies, & each wrote a letter to each missionary. Liv colored pictures for them. It was a lot of letters, but it sure was fun! We sent them to California, Michigan, & Brazil! We sure love our missionaries & pray for their well-being & safety!
Brayden wasted no time when the jolly old fellow came! He was the first in line & the first to sit on Santa's lap!
I thought maybe Teagen would be too cool this year, but he got in line with all of his buddies & didn't seem to have any problems sitting on his lap!
Caroline was so brave this year! Kathryn said that she would NEVER sit on his lap, but with the pressure of her little friends, she was more than willing to hop up on his lap....she's even smiling!
At last, just before we were to go home, Liv decided she would take the plunge & sit on his lap. She was so brave! Way to go Olivia!
Dec. 5th:
The same day I had my surprise baby shower, we also had our church Christmas Party. I inivited my good friend Kathryn to come along with us. The boys disappeared & ran around with friends all night. Liv, Caroline, & Anna had a great time running around the gym! We even had a special guest......Santa Claus! Olivia was very nervous about this strange man in read! She would not sit on his lap, but then finally after staring at him for quite some time, she sat on his lap with my help! It was pretty funny!
