Lewis Lewis did a great job singing! Elias Elias did a great job singing and doing actions to the song. Levi taking picture and videos with his watch was most entertaining. Kindergarten through 5th grades Elias’ buddies
We enjoyed keeping up the fruit topped cookie with Megan this year envn though we are far apart. Hers turned out beautifully as always!
Our friends tried their hand at the fruit mosaic and did a great job! Ours turned out kind of cartoonish, but it tasted great! And our friend Maria’s turned out beautifully as well.
We adventured to Hobby Lobby and there was a LOT to see. The row of crosses was his favorite. He couldn’t believe how many kinds there are, but he did pick a favorite.
St. Nick brought him a mini Lite Bright that he plays with daily.
Lewis made up a new way to play with the Christmas sensory bin and everyone is putting their own spin on it.
The play kitchen is very Christmasy this year! Levi tried a new food and liked it!!! Walnut and raisin bread. We found some Christmas town buildings that go perfectly with his mini trucks. He plays for hours with them.
We spent the weekend at Beth’s house for fun! We played with sorted Playmobil to relive childhood. Read all the comic books Had donuts for breakfast Went to a Christmas Market in a barn (fuuunnna!) Went to another Christmasy market! This one was straight out of Europe…pure magic.
They were selling all kinds of super expensive Christmasy European things. I wanted one of everything.
The train track above would have been more impressive if they didn’t see that every time they go to the dentist.
Two real reindeer!
Then we went to Lakeshore Learning. The boys have only ever drooled over the magazines that come in the mail. It was SO FUN taking them to a store full.to.the.brim. with toys they’ve wanted for years. And most products have a sample open to play with! We left with a lot of stocking stuffers.
We also had lunch at Schlotzkys, but we were all too exhausted and hungry for a picture. Then we went back to Beth’s to relax before heading home.
