Christmas Fun

Wow it has been awhile since we have blogged. We had a great Christmas. Here are a few of the things we did.

Here is Connor with the Spiderman skateboard he got from Santa

Leah was excited to get a pink Care Bear. She loves her "Bear Bears"

Here we are with Santa. We are really cheap, so each year we visit Santa at RC Willey and get our free photo with him. Leah was pretty freaked out of Santa. She wouldn't move when she saw him and she refused to sit on the old man's lap.

Connor's Preschool went and sang at a community Hospital. It was really cute. He was very serious about it. If you can't tell he is the one with the red vest.

Connor loves Preschool and he has the sweetest teacher.

This is our Elf on the Shelf. My Aunt Gayla gave this to my kids early in December and it was the BEST thing. We LOVED it! If you don't have this and you have kids you have to get it. It is a book about an elf that lives with you and every night flies back to Santa and tells him if you have been bad or good. So- each morning the kids would wake up and find their elf in a different place. Connor named his elf Steven. We have no idea why he chose that name. Having an elf was a great threatening tool :) when our kids weren't being on their best behavior. We would tell them "I'm going to tell Steven" or "Steven is watching you". It worked really well. One day after church Connor told Steven that Leah wasn't very good in Sacrament Meeting. We also caught Connor whispering to Steven "Tell Santa I want a Spiderman skateboard."
