On the 15th we celebrated Doug's Birthday. He got some coasters that had real movie film stock in them and some gift cards. His nice parents watched our kids at night and we went to dinner at Thai Mango.
He also got some yummy peanut butter things and we had peanut butter bars and peanut butter ice cream with his family after dinner.
A few days later Sophia's class put on "A Christmas Carol". They did a great job. She was one of the narrators.
Sophia with her awesome teacher Mr. Ewell after the play.
Grandparents came to watch too!! Doug's mom came earlier in the day but I forgot to get a picture with her.
A few days later Mabel had a Christmas performance at preschool. They sang some cute songs for the parents.
I love the elf hats they made.
Here's another thing she made this year. My friend had the idea to make these and I was happy to take part. I thought it turned out pretty cute!
This little Tootsie finally lost her first tooth the week before Christmas too! She was so excited!
Random Lewis selfie.
The Friday before Christmas I helped with Lilly's Grinch party at school. We played Grinch bowling,
decorated grinch cookies,
played Grinch bingo,
Don't eat Grinch, and pin the heart on the Grinch. It was a super fun party and I think she had a good time.
After that I took my girls to see "A Christmas Carol" at the Hale Theater in Orem. It was awesome!! They did a great job and it was fun to see. Jacob Marley was a little spooky but really good!
The next day we had the annual Ivins Christmas party with Doug's mom's family. It's always a fun time. We do the nativity and Santa comes. Lewis wasn't so sure of him this year.
Lilly approved though!
And so did Sophia.
Here's Mabel telling him that she wants an Elsa make-up kit.
And Lewis screaming bloody murder.
Santa brought them all Beenie Boos. I think they were pleased.
Mabel was the star in the nativity and took her job very seriously. She held that thing up the whole time!
Doug's sister Leda and brother-in-law David were Mary and Joseph. Their baby Will played Jesus. Leda sang "Mary's Lullaby" to him and is was beautiful!!
