Leading Up to Christmas

Our December has been so festive and fun. The kids (especially Zeke) have been so excited!

Enjoying the Christmas tree and the Christmas train. 


Advent calendar ornaments for the little tree. Two ornaments every day until Christmas. 


We got Little People nativities this year. We all love them! This is Zeke's preferred arrangement... I love how all of the animals and visitors are crowded around to see the baby. 



Gingerbread festival. The gingerbread boy and girl cutouts were the favorite part again this year! 


The primary sang at the ward/neighborhood party. Aaron got this sweet picture of Zeke and Nora singing Away in a Manger (asleep....asleep....)


Zeke was excited to go see Santa.


Nora was excited too but only wanted to get this close. 


And there were so many other things that made the season bright that we didn't photograph. Baking Christmas sugar cookies, Christmas shopping for our extended family members, Christmas parties, wrapping presents, seeing Christmas lights, singing/listening to/dancing to Christmas carols, reading Christmas stories, watching Christmas movies, and of course arranging and re-arranging our nativities and talking about the nativity story.
