Having a Good Time

Can hair express how you are feeling?
What would we do without Grahm Cracker houses on cold days? This particular model comes furnished with windows, doors, and shingles donated by Lydia's leftover Halloween stash.
Ward Christmas party. The primary children went up to sing a song. Though Lydia doesn't enter primary until January, she was eager to be included and reverently went up. Notice Colton's back to the picture, watching the children.
Lydia's first time ever sitting on Santa's lap. "All her friends were doing it!" Colton was tired, so he didn't really care or understand, but I promise Lydia was excited about it though her expression doesn't really say, "Christmas spirit"
For family home evening yesterday, we went to the mall and rang the Salvation Army Christmas bells. The kids brought in a lot more money than their parents. Go figure. Lydia and Colton lasted about 15 minutes until they couldn't stand it any longer and went to the play place that was within eyesight. Who knows if they learned anything about serving or helping those in need, but we did all have a great time.

Ana did the same thing at our ward party when the primary kids sang. She can't wait to be in Primary!

I love how Colten looks at the kids. I would give $ if I saw your kids ringing the bell to.
