The Spirit of Christmas

December is a busy month with birthdays, parties, preparing, shopping, and Christmas Day itself.  Here are a few things we have done so far in the month of December.  We had our Ward Christmas Party (Breakfast), decorating of Memom and Granddad's tree, our own tree, breakfast celebration for Hudson's birthday, and a birthday party for Hudson who turned 13.

Birthday party blowing out his surf themed cake (cupcakes; black bottoms).

Shocked that he got his Kobe Easter shoes.

Lights ready to be hung!

A little entertainment!

And old vintage Christmas Ornaments.

This red cello and Santa ornament are probably some of the oldest we have.  My dad says they are at least 50 years old.

Mom-Mom's favorite: Strawberries

 Little girl laying around enjoying the lights of the tree.

 Then some play time in the saucer.  How big is she?

 This is so much fun mom!
