Christmas Activities

It has been a pretty busy week. I have been trying to get my Christmas shopping done, but having a hard time. Ryder is not a shopper and makes shopping pretty miserable. I just have few things left to get, but I think I am going to send Darren out. Between the shopping I have trying to get in the Christmas spirit by doing Christmas things with the kids. I have had some pretty interesting Christmases the last few years and don't really look forward to the holidays anymore. I am trying a little harder this year now that Azelynn understands more what is going on.


SANTA!!!
Earlier this month we went to see Santa at Macys and Azelynn would hardly go near him and would not say a word, But after watching a few Christmas shows about Santa she warmed up to him and even told him what she wanted.
Ryder was not so happy about sitting on his lap!


DECORATING CHRISTMAS COOKIES


Azelynn got together with Sammy and decorated Christmas cookies. They enjoyed eating the frosting more then anything.

Ryder enjoyed eating the cookies.


The kids decided to pose after cleaning up, Maddie was not so happy about it though.


TEMPLE SQUARE


A couple days ago we went to the Temple Square to see the lights with the Jenne family. It was super busy. I don't remember ever it being so packed and I have been many times throught the years.

Ryder loved all the lights he kept pointing to them and saying "ight"

I was a little stressed while we were there. I had left my wallet at the restaurant we were at earlier and they had not been able to find it. When I finally got back to the restaurant to look for it they were not being very helpful about finding it. They kept telling me that they would just call me when it got turned in. Being over three houres since I left it I figured it would have been turned in by then. I would not leave until they looked a little more thoroughly. Guess what, they found it wrapped in a coat that was in the lost and found hmmm.... Anyway I am just gratefull I found it.

GINGERBREAD HOUSE DECORATING
Azelynn got to decorate a gingerbread house with her cousins. Again, her favorite part was eating the frosting.


Benson is pretty cute!


Ryder is pretty cute too.

Thanks for making this week fun. I don't know how else I would have gotten through it otherwise!
