It has been a month and I have fallen behind. December has been amazing, we are feeling the Christmas spirit very strong this year and are loving our light the world calendar. No better year to give then this one which has been pretty rough on most people. I am so glad we are able to serve and help make the world a better place.
Decorating cookies to start the month off.
Making Christmas card for missionaries from our ward, cleaning each others bedrooms, and filling stocking for homeless children.
I've also got to get extra service in with the YW. The ward pitched in money to make Christmas boxes for the food bank and we were about to make 24 boxes! Thats 24 more families that get feed this Christmas season.
The girls went shopping with us and gathered all the supplies for the boxes and then out them together. I was blown away with how much people in our ward pitched in for the girls to go shopping.
Wednesdays play date with Hazen was an indoor play ground and we had a blast!
Friday after school we went to play at a skate park. I forget how brave Stanley is, no fear. McKay was pretty brave there I was really surprised but impressed.
Fun afternoon at the park, such a beautiful day.
Saturday we headed to Dallas Arboretum for the Christmas event. Even though we had a membership it cost extra to go at night to see the lights. We decided to go right at the end of the day before they close for the night time event. It was starting to get dark and I felt it was perfect.
We also decided to go the the children's area at the arboretum too, we loved it! So much fun for the kids to do.
Sunday we made hot cocoa bombs with friends.
Other things from the week...
McKay made a cute snowflake and a card for us. She can be so sweet!
