Winter Fun!!

This week the kids have had some good winter fun. On Friday night we had a party with the Relief Society presidency. It was fun to all get together and get to know each other better. The kids played Christmas bingo, and then the older kids helped Tanlie and Brogan start their gingerbread house. When every one left they finished it all by their selves. They did such a good job. On Saturday afternoon we took the kids to see santa at IFA. I will have to post the pictures of them later because they took the pictures for us and they won't be back untill Tuesday. They were also doing horse carriage rides, but it was way too cold for us to ride.
Then on sunday, after church the kids decieded that since there was a skiff of snow on the ground they needed to go sledding. So Brandon pulled them behind the ranger for a little bit. It was sooo cold we had to come inside to warm up with some hot coco. The kids are so excited for Christmas. Tanlie asks everyday how many days are left till Christmas.

Decorating Christmas Trees

On Monday night we got our Christmas tree out. I let the kids help me decorate it, and then when they went to bed I fixed it a little bit. Tuesday we let them each decorate their own Christmas tree for their bedroom. The kids had lots of fun and their tree's turned out pretty cute.
Brogan thinks that since we put the Christmas tree up it is Christmas, and he can't figure out why Santa hasn't brought him his "dinosaur" yet.
Christmas is so much fun when you have little kids. All of us can't wait for Christmas this year.
