A Busy Week


It was a busy weekend.  Especially on Saturday.  We made another attempt at pictures

Went to Michael's Soccer Party at this Laser Tag place, he had a lot of fun.  We didn't bring any extra money so the other kids "pretended" to play the other games.  It was pretty cool place.
ON Saturday Evening We had the WARD CHRISTMAS PARTY, I volunteered to make some funeral potatoes, and than we where also asked to participate in their skit.  We were the 4th day of Christmas  Someone read a poem and we acted it out this ist he poem:
Mother takes the rolling pin,
Rolls the spicy dough out thin,
Cuts the cookies out with care,
Some are round and some are square.
Cookies must not bake too fast,
Mother takes them out at last.
They are ymmy, warm, and sweet!
Oh, how good they are to eat.

We are such the actors.
The kids where also part of the Nativity which was the 12th day of Christmas, Savannah didn't go up, she was the one most excited.  Of course she didn't know when she was supposed to go up. But here's Taylor doesn't she look thrilled!

And of course Santa came...

I'm sure this probably the last year Michael will sit on Santa's lap.  Overall the food was good, and it was a late night.  Thankfully Sunday wa spretty relaxing.  I did make my own bread bowls and cheese potato soup, they both turned out pretty good, and the kids loved it.

Ha ha ha! I LOVE the second attempt at Christmas pictures. I think that one should go on your cards -- too bad you and Mark aren't in it :)

That soup looks really yummy, you are making me hungry! :)
