We started December with a bang! We began the Light the World program and have had such special opportunities to serve others this month. On the first day, Adam and Tessa loaded up several bags of canned food to donate to their school food drive.
On December 1st, we went to the Living Nativity in Alpine. Ma, Pa and Aunt Katy joined us this year.
Everyone loves the camels!
The kids got to try working in carpenters and blacksmiths shops.
We love getting to see Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus.
Mommy was making dinner one night, when the doorbell rang. I opened the door to find a cookie and a note on the porch for me. The note thanked me for a comment I had made recently in church and how it had really helped this person who left this on my porch. I was touched and so grateful.
December also means Mommy gets up extra early to read her scriptures by the light of the Christmas tree. One of my favorite things ever!
Bet you didn't know dinosaurs visited the nativity!
We also started our Christmas countdown activities. The kids played Christmas Headbands for one of our activities.
Writing their letters to Santa
The boys scared me to death one night when I went to check on Caleb before I went to bed and I found Curious George in his place. They had planed a decoy Caleb and were fast asleep together in Adam's bed.
