Jeff and I took the boys up to Temple Square in Salt Lake City to see all the Christmas lights and go to the Visitor's Center. The boys had a fantastic time and it was so beautiful. Big snow flakes were falling and the lights were shining. There was definitely the Spirit of Christmas there. It was a very uplifting experience and the boys were so well behaved.
This is the Lego Nativity Scene that the older boys made with Jeff's help. I came home from a girl's night out and the boys were so excited to show me their creation.
All three wise men bringing gifts for the baby Jesus.
These are my creative little boys Justin and Ryan. It really brought the story to life for them. Way to go Jeff!
This was the Santa at our Ward Christmas party. He was giving out candy canes which made him a big hit with all of our kids.
Joshua was all about Santa this year. It was all I could do to keep him in line to wait his turn. When it was his turn he ran up and jumped on his lap.
Jacob on the other hand, wasn't so sure. However, at least he didn't cry.
Ryan was super excited when his first tooth fell out. It was in the morning before going to school on December 9th. He took it with him in a baggy to show his kindergarten teacher. She gave him a high five and that made his day. However, he is not very money oriented yet. He found money under his pillow from the Tooth Fairy and he asked Justin if he wanted it. He knows how much Justin loves to get money and he could care less. I have a feeling that will change.
Cubby got all tuckered out and fell fast asleep in my arms.
Ryan was sneaking a drink of Daddy's protein berry shake. It was thick so he kept tilting the huge mug farther and farther until it spilled all over his face.
We had such a wonderful time decoration our Christmas tree with the Christmas music blasting!
