The Before Christmas Fun

Seems like every December is full of extra craziness. But it all seems to be the fun kind. Here are a few pictures of some of the things we (the kids) did before Christmas. (Kath - this is for you!)

Got the Christmas decorations up. Deryk spent a lot of time on the piano looking at the village pieces we have, which were all displayed on the piano. He HAD to get really close to them to see all the details, but did great at not touching them.

Shaylee and Maycee had a school Christmas concert. Shaylee played the recorder with all the 4th graders. Maycee sang 2 songs with the 2nd graders.

The girls also had a concert for their TaVaci singing group they are in. It was all Christmas songs and they all did so great! Shaylee did a little solo (almost died several times the day of from nerves) and it was beautiful!

We always go up the Rock Creek Canyon to see the Christmas lights. Seemed kind of strange without snow this time, but Santa was there and the kids just love that funny camel at the end. Get to feed him carrots and pet him. He is quite cute in an ugly animal way. :)
