| Grace writing her letter to Santa |
 |
| Now to cut out some pictures to hang |
 |
| hmmm... I get to pick out a toy?!? |
 |
| Christmas wishes- they know they may not get all of these and that's okay :) Lily asked for a new outfit for her American Girl doll Emma, headphones, Lego Friends Pet Salon and a toy cat. Grace wanted a Sofia doll, Unicorn, Innotab like her sister, and a Barbie. Gabe just wants "jeeps! jeeps! jeeps!" |
 |
| Grace painting a tree... |
 |
| ... now time to decorate their trees! |
 |
| The girls also made Rudolph (Gabe didn't want to) |
 |
| We went to this cute Santa's Workshop at one of the local middle schools. The 8th grade class ran everything and all the money was donated to buy presents for needy children. Perfect! Here Gabe is making reindeer food. |
 |
| The littles liked dancing with the 8th graders |
 |
| Frosting cookies |
 |
| mmmm cookies |
 |
| dancing again |
 |
| Grace and Lily sitting on Santa and Mrs. Claus's lap...Lily and Grace said NOTHING about how young Santa and Mrs. Claus looked :) |
 |
| This is Gabe- wanted NOTHING to do with Santa. |
 |
| But he did take the candy cane Mrs. Claus gave him! |
 |
| Gabe liked sitting with the 8th grade girls and singing Christmas songs with them. |
 |
| Gabe made a special key, just in case Santa doesn't want to go down our chimney :) |
 |
| The girls liked the many craft tables |
 |
| Grace insisted she write her letter to Santa again |
 |
| Games in the gym |
 |
| Before we left, the girls got their face painted |
 |
| Back home and in the Christmas spirit |
 |
| Can't believe these shirts fit perfectly from last year! |
 |
| I made Grinch cookies and Grinch floats for the girls for movie night- we of course, watched The Grinch |
