"It's the most wonderful time of the year!"

What a whirlwind December has been! We have been busy doing normal December things, trying to stay warm in the 35 degree weather, making yummy treats, learning about our Savior and His miraculous birth. I love this time of year, when the music in stores are joyful and staying snuggled in bed under the covers is acceptable. Enjoy the pictures!



Our nativity that Kayden and Michael made. Our amazing friends, the Adams' over at http://no1hasmorefun.blogspot.com/2011/12/advent-day-5-legos.html inspired us to create.



The 3 wise men, bringing their gold, frankincense and myrrh.



Joseph, apparently in the boys eyes, he was a biker dude with flames on his shirt.



And Mary was an aerobics teacher...






Baby Jesus.. Michael thought it was funny that Jesus was just a lego head with no body. Sweet Michael!



Lily being pampered by her daddy. We hate sending her to bed with wet hair, so daddy blow dryed it for her.. She is spoiled!



The mess in the kitchen while making 13 dozen Christmas cookies, 6 dozen chocolate dipped marshmallows, and 10 dozen dipped pretzel rods. MMMM!



Kayden busy being an artist.



He loved decorating, aka eating while he decorated.



Sugar cookies



Gingerbread cookies



The biggest helper in the kitchen. He wanted to be apart of everything that was going on in the kitchen from dipping pretzels in chocolate to sprinkling the marshmallows.. He was a real treat to have as a partner...







Lily's angel that she made from MOPS.



Michael's angel.



Kayden's angel.
