It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas

Yesterday was a fun filled day that made it really feel like Christmas time. We started the day with all the kids at church celebrating Jesus' birthday. I had a blast playing games, reading the Christmas story, and of course eating cake. My little ones were able to join in for some of the fun. They got there just in time to get all sugared up and then sing and dance. The whole room was filled with Joy.

We then got some snow (heavy flurries), which is odd for this time of year. We did not get out in it because the wind was too strong. The kids enjoyed looking at the flurries through the window.

Last night was the first performance of this years children's Christmas play. Part of the show was a live Nativity and the trips got to play parts. Ellie and Charlotte were Angels.

Evan was a Shepherd. He spent most his time looking for sheep (toys off the toy store set). Jennifer was an Angel as well - someone had to keep the little one's in line. Who knew that little Angels loved gold fish crackers?

They did a great job and we rewarded them with a trip to see Christmas lights at our local park.

Not much but the kids got a kick out of them. We made two trips through the park.
