Day 22 & 23

Day 22

Make Christmas Cookies for Santa

Monday morning Max woke up and didn't put his boot on.  Freedom!  Thankfully we didn't have to go the doctor to get it off. 

The the day turned into a bit of a Christmas movie marathon. Mer had a friend over.  The boys cut some more snowflakes.

I had to include this picture of max's "unblock me" game.  Doug was trying to tell Max that playing video games is different than playing with toys in real life.  Max said it was the same. Doug said prove it and go build a real life version of the game he was playing. and so max did. :)  and it worked.

Fun with Christmas Tangrams

We did get around to making cookies for santa.  Dark chocolate chip with peppermint morsels. 

The kids then went over to have FHE at a friends house while we finished up the Christmas shopping. 

Day 23

Act out the Nativity and Open 1 present

We had some friends over for a nice Christmas Eve dinner

We dined on steak and sweet potato fries and acted out the nativity.

 We made reindeer food and made sure the lawn was stocked with lots of oatmeal.

 We sang carols around the piano and set out our cookies for Santa.

Luke and Jack made sure to leave a picture present for him.

A sweet end to a sweet night.
