Zoo Lights

Last night we went to see the Zoo Lights.  It was freezing outside, but we had a good time and all enjoyed the amazing display of lights.  After we went to Denny’s to get some hot chocolate to warm up and some breakfast for dinner!

Two Preschool Christmas Programs

Dylan has been busy singing this week (and will sing, again, in Sacrament meeting on Sunday).  On Wednesday Miss Karen arranged to have the kids sing at the Valley Fair Mall.  It was so cute.  They were all set up right next to where you get your picture taken with Santa.  The kids did a great job.  Afterwards we went to In-n-Out with the Wells family.  It was a great evening!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Friday the kids had their performance at the West Jordan Library.  Again, they did a fantastic job.  Miss Karen works hard with them and it shows in their performance.  At the end there was a surprise visitor from the North Pole!!  (I slipped in some cute pictures of our little friend, Samuel (aka Bubba), at the end!  He was at the performance.)

Hex Girl

While we were vacationing in California, Nathan recorded Avery singing this song.  She’s saying, “I’m a Hex Girl, and I’m gonna put a spell on you.”  This is from Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated.

Christmas Party???

On your marks…

Get set…

Go…

…and the Nerf Gun War of all Nerf Gun Wars was played.  Last night we had our primary kids over for a very non-traditional Christmas party.  For three hours they ran around and shot each other, enjoying every minute of it.  Their Christmas present was a Nerf gun for each of them and plenty (200 total) of darts to last the entire evening.  We only had half of the kids from our class there, and missed those who couldn’t make it.  At 9:30pm they convinced me to join, and I became a prime target, but I valiantly fought back.  It is a night I will always treasure.

December Birthdays

Sunday we celebrated Nick, Nathan and Dylan’s birthdays.  Dylan chose a Ben 10 Alien Force cake and we added the age appropriate candles of 14, 29 and 5.  It was a fun evening.  December is a very busy month for birthdays, in addition to these three, our niece, Charlotte, Grandpa Baker, and our friend Makenzie shares her birthday with Dylan (and Joseph Smith).
