Christmas Cheer

We have been having a lot of fun getting ready for Christmas! The kids are counting down the days with our Christmas chain and everyday Adam reminds Tessa that Santa is watching them!
The kids loved decorating the house for Christmas!



We always have cinnamon rolls and eggnog (I have hot chocolate) after we decorate
Adam found this Santa hat in our decorations last Monday, and he hasn't taken it off! He takes it off for baths and reluctantly took it off for church. He sleeps in it every night.

My family celebrates Father Christmas (it's a Germany thing...going back to our roots) on December 5th. Father Christmas leaves treats in your shoes on the night of the 5th. We take it a step further and that is when Christopher Pop-in-kins "pops in" and stays until Christmas Eve. He watches the kids for Santa. It's a great reminder for them to be good!
Last night for family home evening we went to see the Spanish Fork Lights. The kids loved it!



Merry Christmas!!!
