We had a great holiday season this year filled with lots of fun activities with friends and family!
It has become a tradition to go to the city tree lighting with our friends Christina, Darren, Ryan, and Matt. Connor loves Ryan and they have so much fun together! Here are some pictures of them climbing the fire trucks at the tree lighting. And yes, Abby brought a wand to the event. This particular wand she calls her "bippity boppity boo" wand. It is hilarious when she twirls the wand and says, "Bippity, boppity, boo!"
We went to church with Grandma and Grandpa.
What would Christmas be without torturing yourself and your children trying to capture the perfect picture in front of the Christmas tree? Actually, this year was fun. The kids were very silly and cute. (We bribed them with a treat of course!)
Another tradition we have is to go to the "Santa Train" with our friends Melanie, Ryan, Makena, and Brody. The kids always have so much fun riding the train to go see Santa. This year it rained so much and we were all so busy, we couldn't do until really late into December. Unfortunately, the same thing happened to everyone else. It was packed! But, we had a great time despite the freezing cold temperature. (OK, not freezing cold compared to places where it actually snows. But to us it was Arctic conditions!) As you can see from the picture, Abby is still a Santa fan in theory, but likes to admire him from a far! There were so many cute pictures, I made a slide show if you want to see more of them.
We also decorate cookies as a family every year. We have been doing it at Grandma's house with our cousins the last couple of years which has made it even more fun! Abby of course chose to frost her cookies with pink frosting. She was so excited about the pink sprinkles!
