So our friends the Youles came over and we decorated sugar cookies one day after school.
Friday night was our ward Christmas party. It was a lot of fun. Lots of delicious food and of course a visit from one of Santa's helpers. The twins figured it out quick that this was not the real Santa as he is too busy getting ready for Christmas. But they said that he will still get their message.
Here is Nathan on Santa's lap.
Comptyn
Sammy
Bryce with Santa. We asked Santa to tell Bryce how to get back on the nice list. He has been on the naughtly list for a while. So far it has worked! He has been doing well.
Daniel with Santa.
Bryce and a drumstick.....Heaven in his mouth, he said.
So it's a Lords' family tradition to have a pinata on Christmas Eve after Family Home Evening. So here is our attempt at making one for Family Home Evening last night. First picture is what we started with....we wanted a snow man.
Ryan jumped right in to get slimy.
Nathan wasn't too timid. Comptyn, took some time, but by then my hands were goopy and the twins didn't want anything to do with it.
Bryce eventually joined....notice we are giving up on the snowman idea. It's now gonna be either an ornament, Santa face or something else.....We'll see when it's time to decorate!
All the help lasted about 10 minutes. Kevin and I finished it up.
So last night was a lunar eclipse for those of you that are celestially impared (not religiously or anything!) The boyz have been begging for about a week to get woken up and watch it. It started at 10:30 and lasted until about midnight. So we were still awake at 10:30 and woke Ryan, Comptyn and Bryce up. Notice who lasted for more than about 2 minutes?
Comptyn went back to bed. I am surprised he remembers anythign this morning. He was pretty out of it. We watched for about 25 minutes until it was almost 1/2 covered.
