Christmas Activities...

This year we stayed busy with different fun activities and parties to go to at Christmas time. We went up to Snowflake Lane our friends the Penroses. Unfortunately, we ran into some traffic and made it for the last 3 minutes of the performance. We all still had a good time though. The kids got to write letters to Santa Clause.

Kendall asked for Barbie and Dora.

Atwood asked for a Dsi and Legos.

I love pictures of these two together. They are so close in age and are such great friends. I hope they always stay that way.

We caught one of the performers and snapped a quick picture.

Here's my awesome looking family. They are all so fun.

Everyone in Sunday best before church.

Aaron's fire department always has a family Christmas party. It is a ton of fun. The kids have toys to play with. We eat lots of food, play bingo, do a pinata, and of course SANTA gets to come visit and give everyone a gift.

Kendall was not such a huge fan of Santa...

That is until he gave her a gift!

Right before the party at Aaron's work, we were coming home from our family party at Uncle Derek's house and Santa was being pulled by a fire truck through our neighborhood.

Atwood was very excited about his gift. The cousins all draw names and get each other a little something.

Grandma and Grandpa Kilstrom went to Utah this year for Christmas so we got together with them the week before Christmas. Here are the "big girls" enjoying some cake. Grandma and Grandpa got some of the girls these dog purses. Megan LOVES hers. Her cousin Brynn got the same one and they were modeling them all night.

Of course, the "little girls" also got adorable little dog purses. They were all excited because they all got their own lipstick (it was really chapstick) too. I think Kendall used all of hers the first two days she had it.

We also went up to Grandma and Grandpa Lewis' house for Christmas Eve. Evidentally we didn't take any pictures of that, but we had a great time. It was a smaller group there this year, just one of Aaron's 7 siblings and their families were there. I'm sure you can imagine how crazy and fun it is when all 8 kids and their families come!

We did have an awesome time with everyone this Christmas season. It's all about spending time with those we love.
