Being All Christmasy and Stuff


The best time of the year, the month leading up to Christmas!  


Maybelle had her 2 month shots.


This was before the vaccines, all smiles:

Hervy/Herby (nobody can decide) has been being naughty.  It's driving Amaryllis a little crazy I think.


 Somehow I got put in charge of the Christmas party at church again.







It was fun.  I outsourced pretty much everything so it really wasn't a ton of work.  Here are the booths that each auxiliary came up with.

Pin the star on the tree:

Christmas jewelry: 

Sugar cookie decorating:

Christmas tree bowling:

Candy cane fishing:

I love that Kensington has her little friends and they always seem to find eachother:


Amaryllis collected all the pinwheels from the centerpieces.  This week she was the "All About Me" kid at school, where they take a bag home and fill it with stuff from their home, and bring it to school and show everybody.  She jam packed that bag with all these pinwheels the next day.  I wonder what her teacher thought.


Speaking of Amaryllis, she was forced/bribed to get up but she did NOT sing:

 Festival of Lights boat parade.
 And some fun things the kids have been doing:






And I realized Maybelle isn't included in our little blogger header, so it's time for a new one with a family of three.  Can you believe it?

If you weren't so awesome at planning the party, they wouldn't keep asking you ;)

I love your Christmas party ideas. The candy cane fishing especially. It's so simple, but so clever.

I can't believe how big KD is getting, it's been too long since I've seen her!

Your ward party looked awesome, no wonder they put you in charge again. What a great idea to assign each auxiliary to do a game...that would of made our ward party actually fun.
