Singing Logan

Couldn't you just eat him up he is so cute!

More Christmas

Going to church....I had to bribe Brielle with treats to get her to stand still by Raegan. All she wants to do whenever I get the camera out is look in the screen. Whatever works!
The other day I had to try and make some sort of desserts for the church party coming up. I was in charge of it and so I wanted to do a fun dessert. I bought some cute little tree molds to make this great chocolate bunt cake but when I made the trees and put them on the plate they were so small that even when I added ice cream they were even smaller. Anyways, it was the same night our home teachers were coming over so I told Raegan I would just give them the trees to eat so I would stop eating them and she came up with this elaborate scheme to be a waitress and got her apron out with a pad of paper, put straws in her pockets and practiced for hours what her opening lines would be. She even called Grandma and practiced with her. Well, the minute the home teachers walked in the door Raegan's mouth stopped working and she clammed right up. Poor girl. Oh well. I guess it is okay she is a nervous around men she doesn't know well.

Christmas time!!!

Sea World has the polar express. It was a fun thing the kids liked. You watch a little of the movie and then think you are at the North Pole. Brielle didn't love Santa but the other two had a great time telling him all the things they wanted.

Posing with the Pritchetts

We had a Christmas party with some friends and read the "Gingerbread Girl". Logan absolutely loves that book. He can quote it. So we made gingerbread girls out of sugar cookies. They like using licorice for the hair. By the time we were done they were so full of candy they didn't eat their cookies.

We also made reindeer from their hands and feet.

Jake and I dressed up for our annual Navy dinner. It is an annual banquet we go to each year at the very posh Peabody Hotel where everyone dresses to the nines in their military uniforms and other attire. Great fun and wonderful entertainment, we look forward to it each year.
