Once Upon a December

December was a fun month with lots of Christmas Activities. It was kicked off at our ward Christmas Party where the boys and Kam played a big part in the program. It was really fun going to practices leading up to the night of the party. It gave us all a great chance to begin the month with a greater focus on our Savior, who is the reason for the Season.



This year, like years past, we had did different fun activities planned each day during the month and one of the activities was to go to Build a Bear to make a new friend to snuggle. Braden make Beast from Beauty and the Beast, Carter made Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon, and Riley made a puppy. This was Riley's first time at Build a Bear and she just loved it. She was so excited and has not let her puppy out of her sight since bringing her home!




We were so lucky to have not only my Mom and Gary in town to celebrate Christmas with, but Keven and Krista as well. On Christmas Eve we did our Nativity together and it was fun to have extra bodies to join in. It was special for us to share our Christmas traditions with our parents.
I din't really take any pictures on Christmas Day, only video, but it was a great day. Riley got an American Girl doll and the boys were so excited with their gift from Kam, compound bows. They even went out and shot them out at the range almost immediately after opening them!




 We got together the day after Christmas with the Ferguson Cousins and went to see the lights at Ethel M's. It was a great way to continue the fun of the Christmas season.
