Christmas 2017

These little elves went shopping with Grandma Susie to Costco and loved trying all the samples!

Christmas Eve was on a Sunday this year and it was fun to teach the girls about the reason for celebrating Christmas was about Christ's birth.

Christmas Eve we spent with the Baths doing the traditional dinner and gift exchange
                 
Christmas Morning was a quite morning at our house with our little family. The girls were so excited to see what Santa had brought them! Brynnley got a puppy and both girls got the toy of the year...the Fingerling monkey! I even carried on the tradition of making my Mom's Christmas quiche.

Winter and Holiday Activities

On Saturday December 18th we attended the Evans Family Christmas Party. 
It has become a tradition that we find the most lovely Christmas outfits to wear, have a gingerbread house contest, play fun games and eat lunch together.

 The gingerbread house I made this year. I haven't been able to help the last few years since I have been sick, so it was fun to decorate this year.

The girls were so excited to go to South Towne Mall to visit Santa this year. Aubrie asked Santa for a Fingerling Monkey and Brynnley wants a dog.
This little monkey had a pre-dance recital show at Lotsa Tots. I was excited to hear that Synergy, a dance company in West Jordan, was going to offer classes at daycare! This was perfect since their class is on Thursdays for an hour while she is at daycare! She is the youngest one in her class and was the star of her show! She loves to show us how to Shasse, Plie, and walk on her tippy toes.

November

November was time to slow down our lives a little bit and just enjoy our little family.

           
               Baby Harper was born in November
              


Happy Thanksgiving!
Of course we did some Black Friday shopping and then spent Saturday playing at Thanksgiving Point's Dinosaur Museum and Kids Curiosity Museum.
