December Wrap Up

December was filled with lots of festivities and fun!  Here are the phone moments from the month!

Lots of Young Women activities - this Wednesday, I went with the Beehives and made graham cracker nativities with them.  
 Kaley just laying under the tree.
 After her birthday party!  
 Haley's swimming party with cousins!
 Gingerbread houses with just us!  









 Part of the recital treats that I made for my students.  I also made little ornaments, but I didn't take a picture of them.  
 Mia Maid activity - making real gingerbread houses.  
 My real wreath that my neighbor helped me make!

 Sugar cookies and White Christmas!
 Thomas' teacher got married in December!  We have loved Miss Nelson - Kaley had her too for 2nd grade.  :)  

 Kaley had a group report on Christmas traditions in France.  She borrowed real French trinkets from Pops, and we brought mini buche de noel (yule logs)- Swiss Rolls :) - for the class.  It was adorable!




 These two - playing Santa and Reindeer.
 At the little elf party for Kindergarten!

 Making reindeer food. :)
 Playing Christmas card games of Old Maid and Go Fish.
 Sophie cracked us up this Christmas!  She would wrap presents (really anything she could find) and put it under the tree.  We spent a good 5 minutes opening the presents from Sophie on Christmas morning.  They were knick knacks from around the house, or broken pieces of toys, or treasures, or little notes.  She is darling!  We are still getting wrapped up treasures!  I think we know Sophie's Love Language!  :)


 Playing make up with the little girls.


 A date to the BYU game - we got to sit on Papa's floor seats!  Such a fun game!
 Sophie's big mess!  Kaley was brushing her hair with her new round brush and it got super stuck!  This was after I had untangled about half of it!  Melissa - my next door neighbor - came over to answer my plea for help!  She grew up with lots of little sisters, and was able to help me get through this tangle without cutting Soph's hair!

Snow Fun!

The day after Christmas, all we wanted to do was play in the SNOW!!!  Danielle and Dave came down to play with us!  We bundled up Sawyer and played with him too!  




 Pretty sister!
 I'm pretty sure I have the greatest family!  Danielle and Dave play with our kids, and our kids LOVE it!
































 This is my favorite series of pictures - the twins going down the hill together.  Look at their faces!




Warm snuggles and hot chocolate after a cold, fun morning!
