 Christmas update:

Day 3-16
ward Christmas party
watched both versions of "the Grinch"
saw the lights at Thanksgiving Point
kids bought each other gifts at dollar store
made snow flakes
wrapped presents
wrote thank you letters to Primary teachers
made and delivered goodies
Kangaroo Zoo
Arthur Christmas matinee
dance recital
school Christmas program
live nativity
work party
made salt dough ornaments

This is the example of the salt dough ornaments. We used rubber stamps and ink to add messages to the ornaments.

Liberty Park in Salt Lake has a fantastic live nativity.  A little Shepard takes you from scene to scene. The actors sing songs in costumes plus there are real animals including sheep and a real camel. We dressed very warm and went prepared with hot bags. Also, we were privileged to have cousin Andrew and his two kiddos to join us in the cold. (Sorry about the stroller reflector light.)  I recommend going if you can. Check out echoesofchristmas.com for more information. There are only a few nights left.
