Well as you can guess I was not very good at blogging over the holiday's, so here is a preview of "Oh what fun we had, singing all the way!"
We start by having to go see Santa AGAIN!!
The reason why we had to see him AGAIN, Ben forgot to tell him he wanted a pillow pet for Christmas. After listing to him tell me this 3-4 times a day for 2 weeks, I broke down and went!!He stopped talking to him after 5-7 minutes and we told him we had to go. There are other children here to talk to Santa.
Then we had the school sing-a-long. Jake was sick but Meg did a great job. We also had Meg's first concert with her playing her Viola.
My sister Christy brought over some elf hats left from her school class elf training that she does very year. Believe it or not, Travis was the first to put a hat on and want a picture taken!!
We went to Ogden city hall fair grounds to see the Christmas village light display. Grandpa and Grandma Squire joined us for the fun evening, we went to dinner and had over tradition of donuts and hot chocolate after the lights. (YUMMY)
We had our Christmas eve party at my bother Rob's house. His basement goes on forever, makes it nice for a big family party.
We played games...
We had yummy food...
We had a great program that really helped all of us fill the spirit of Christmas and the spirit of Christ...Jake got a new bike, for a big boy...
Because the weather was so nice he was able to learn how to ride it...(He picked it up fast and did a great job at riding it)
I know I don't have pictures of the other kids, but honestly I got so caught up in Christmas morning I forgot to take pictures. I could go on about what everyone got but again that's not what Christmas is about. It's about remembering our Savior and how much he loves us, to give us the best Christmas gift anyone on earth will ever get, eternal life! So there you have it our holiday preview. It was a wonderful season and I love feeling so close to my family, but I'm glad it's gone for a few!!
