Create a little Christmas Cheer...

December is always so busy! We have been celebrating this joyous season a lot this week...
Tanner's friend, Sam, made a Gingerbread house and wanted share it with us! Thanks Sam!

We saw Inland Pacific Ballet's Nutcracker with Hunter's preschool. Ms. Kristine's daughter was a cute bon-bon! This is the same company my sister danced with in her early ballet career, so it always brings back memories! Hunter's favorite part was Clara dancing with the Nutcracker (he LOVES Nutcrackers) and Tanner liked the Chinese dragon. Hunter wouldn't get in the picture, so here is Tanner and Hunter's friend, Cameron, after the ballet. (Sorry, boys, for making you smile with the sun glaring in your eyes!)

Breakfast with Santa

Today we had Breakfast with Santa at church.

They played a game called "Wrap the Counselor". (Mormon lingo: every ward (congregation) has a "Bishopric", made up of a Bishop and two counselors. The Bishop is basically in charge of the ward and he has two counselors to help him. Ladd currently serves as first counselor to our Bishop.) So, Ladd and the other counselor, Tyler, were in a race to get wrapped up first.

Ladd won! Fun times.

The kids sang and did a little Nativity reanactment. Hunter was too busy running around with his favorite person, Carson, to sing. Oh well. It was a battle not worth fighting.
Here are a handful of the cute pregnant ladies in our ward. At any given time, you can find five or six pregnant people at church. We really like babies in the Summit ward. There were 17 babies born the year Hunter was born. They will never be without friends their age!
I hope you are feeling very cheery this time of year!
