We decorated our Christmas tree for Family Home Evening one night and the kids LOVED it. I let them do almost all of it. I just handed them the ornaments. Of course it has been rearranged about 40 times since then because Little J loves to take the decorations off a lot!
We also spent some time over the weekend decorating our Gingerbread house. One day I'm going to get organized enough to do REAL gingerbread houses like my Mother in law. She makes the gingerbread and puts the whole thing together, has TONS of decorations and ideas etc... It is so much fun!!! Until then...it's the gingerbread house kit. It still turned out cute, the kids loved it and it made my life just a tiny bit easier:)
Here are a few pictures from these different activities.
There were so many people trying to get pictures and talk to their kids that I had a hard time getting a picture of Joseph. I think it is so cute that he leaned to the side so I could get this one. I kept hollering at him, but he couldn't hear me. He finally looked up and saw me trying to take a picture and just posed so cute.
Janie was totally still just waiting for me to take as many pictures as I could. I think I could use a little red eye reduction...
The star and her biggest fan!!
So happy with their hard work. Way to go kiddos!!
Our lovely gingerbread house. You wonder why my 4 yr old has a black eye??? Even though she is known for being feisty it is NOT because she got into a fight at school. She fell off her bed when she was sleeping and hit her eye on the corner of her nightstand. Poor thing. A nice old man felt sorry for her while we were at the post office (what would I be doing at the post office in December???) and gave her a dollar to buy a special treat:)
This is a picture of the nice side of our house. The other side was a little MORE decorated.
I might try and upload a couple of videos of the kids singing for Jeremy and our Grandmas and Grandpas.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Sounds like you are handling everthing as usual. What great pictures. Don't feel bad on the gingerbread house, we use a kit too. I better get one before it's too late.
