Christmas Parties!

We have had three Christmas parties this past week and they were a lot of fun.  the first was a winter carnival on post.  They had games, a free toy for each child (Walter got a soccer ball, Jem an airplane, Rilla a Polly Pocket, and Shirley a Tigger stuffed animal), crafts, and lunch.  It was a lot of fun.  A little crowded, but fun.




















Our Ward Christmas part was fun, too. it was more spiritual and I liked that. I loved the Christmas music and the Nativity skit that was put on. It was a dinner as well and the kids got to decorate Sugar cookies afterwards. They also had a really good Santa.  Rilla wouldn't go near Santa, though.

















Our last Christmas party was a Battalion part for Gil's work. It was in an airplane hanger and had lots of fun activities for the kids, plus a really good dinner. santa also flew in on a plane. That was really cool. The hardest part about the holiday's this year is not being able to eat a lot of stuff because of Shirley's allergies. There was so much good food and treats that I could not have.


I am looking forward to Christmas now that my Christmas cards are done, packages are mailed, decorations are all up, and gifts are all bought. I still have some wrapping to do. We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.
