Christmas Eve

Here are our fun festivities!!

The cutest Santa's Litter Helper ever!

My mom did The Twelve Days of Christmas for our kids---they LOVED it! Here is them with their Christmas bears reading one of the stories before bedtime.

Riding the Christmas train at the mall. We didn't get a chance to sit on Santa's lap; the line was rediculously long!





But that's okay, Santa called our house!! The kids were shocked and loved talking to him. Thanks Jeff for giving Santa our number!


Our FHE Christmas Special----my kids were obsessed with all the Christmas specials this year, that is what we called our Christmas Eve FHE.
Oh, you'll notice on all of these pics my kids have powdered donuts on their faces, if you were wondering what it was.



We read Luke 2 and talked to the kids about the birth of Christ. Afterwards we had a little testimony meeting. After Lance and I both took turns we asked Andersin if he wanted to say anything. He looked a little shy, so I told him he didn't have to but was welcomed to say something if he's like. His reply? "Can I have another donut?"

The innkeeper says there is no room :o( Oh well, who wants to sleep in the bathroom anyways.
