December Fun

December was a fun month. We got to participate in the Valley party that Santa visits. The Girl did pretty good this year, The Boy had some serious reservations. He didn't cry though, so we still have hope.

Before Christmas we always have the Grandma Great's family party where the kids act out the nativity. I'm not sure if he looked more like a ninja or a wise man... The Girl nailed the angel part though, even if we didn't get great pictures. (She is the smallest angel).

Christmas was a little blurry since most of us were sick. On Christmas Eve all but The Girl wanted naps. So our dear sweet 3 year old decorated the tree by herself. Usually there is a ring around the bottom where there are no ornaments, not this year, everything was in the short ring around the bottom. She did a wonderful job! We even got our fireplace installed so we had Christmas in front of a warm fire. The Boy thought the dump truck he got made a better ride than anything else. Sam looks awesome in his new "town hat".

And last but not least, what would Christmas be without a puzzle? And a good time playing on the new sled in the skiff of snow that we got?
