Pre-Christmas Festivities

We made marshmallow snowmen with baking chips and sprinkles and spaghetti.

They had a lot of fun and it was so easy.

Our ward had a Christmas breakfast one morning.

We wore our pajamas to church and ate yummy food, the Bishop read a wonderful story to the kids and they sang a few Christmas songs.

Santa came!

The kids were all searching the parking lot for his reindeer afterwards.

It was a fun morning.

The kids school put on the annual program where all the classes sing a fun

Christmas song for the parents.

Brandon's class sang a fun Noel Song...

To spell Santa's name is easy to do

You write S A N T and another A, too

But no L, no L, Santa's name has no L

And he won't be too pleased if you don't learn to spell

Jack and Jill went up a hill to fetch water from a well

But when neither one could find it , Jill started to yell

No well, no well, can't believe there's no well

We walked all the way here and I'm mad, can't you tell?

Captain Ahab took his crew, his harpoon and set sail

And he called out to ships, 'Have you seen the white whale?

No whale, no whale, we ain't seen seen no whale

Saw a couple of dolphins, and a big yellow tail

If you've listened to this tune, then you probably can tell

That you've heard it before, it's a song you know well

Know well, know well, it's a song you know well

And we've ruined it completely, so we all say 'Oh well'

oh well, oh well, We'll just say 'Fare thee well'

And Merry Christmas to you and a Joyous Noel

Alyssa's class sang 'I want a hippopotamus for Christmas'

and... the Chipmunks 'Christmas Time'

If only I could upload the video... We will see. I love seeing them with their friends at school.

Alyssa had to decorate her Santa and dress him in new clothes. When we were up for Dallin's Baptism The cousins dipped pretzels in chocolate and decorated them. That was a hit. So much fun to do things together. I don't feel like we did as many activities before Christmas as we usually do. But it we did have some fun times.
