Christmas Galore

This year I was able to help with the Ward Christmas party...it was crazy...and fun. I spent most of my time in the kitchen. Dan was able to snap a few shots of the kids with Santa...no tears this year. Good job Ethan!
I think Addi may have been a bit nervous..but, she made it without any tears too!
We tended some dogs for a few days to add to all the hoopla of the week before Christmas. Addi loved them except for when they plowed her over. She checked on them often..combed their hair and fed them their treats. Ethan was a good to help me with them too. Early in the morning and late at night!
We did make a gingerbread house this year...Grandma T provided it for us last year. The kids had a great time putting it together and decorating it. That night I noticed it was missing from the table...Addi snuck it up to her room. She thought she needed to decorate her room a little.
I just think this picture is cute. Addi wore this hat all night. I found her playing with the Indian Nativity. She plays well on her own most of the time...
