We have had an incredible weekend doing some fun Christmas activities! On Saturday we went to Pinery Park in Wyoming with the Howells for a Candy Cane Hunt and lunch with Santa. We got to the park and had to find 5 paper candy canes hidden in the snow. Then we got to turn them in for the real thing. It was VERY COLD, but Adrianna did great trying to find the candy canes. I think it lasted about 15 minutes!
Then we walked to the Wyoming Senior Center for some games, crafts, and lunch. On the way over Adrianna grabbed Santa's hand and wanted to walk with him. It was very cute! I reminded her that we needed to tell Santa about Jesus too! Can you just imagine that we will be able to walk with Jesus in the same way when we see him in Heaven!
Eliza did not like Santa! But she pretty much gives everyone that look!
Some yummy hot chocolate and Memory!
Eliza and Daddy were working on their coloring skills beforewe enjoyed a pizza lunch from Papa Murphy's, made a few ornaments, listened to a story, and had a great time with our good friends! It was a very well organized event and a fun way to continue our Christmas celebrations!
After afternoon naps we went to a church in Wyoming to see a Live Nativity. They acted out the Christmas story complete with live animals! Adrianna loved seeing Gabriel and was very attentive to the play(shocker!). We got up close and personal with this llama! Jaedon loved it and Eliza could care less! The kids did great and it was a great way for them to see the miracle of Jesus with real people. We hope to teach our girls that Santa is just a person dressed up, he can be fun but the real meaning we celebrate is our Saviour!
Our evening ended with coffee, Christmas cookies, Loaded Questions, and some very precious friends!
