Last year Sara Knight and I threw a fun Christmas party/playgroup and it was such a hit, we decided to do it again this year! We invited all the kids in the ward to come and play for a few hours one morning at the Church building at the start of the school's Christmas break. There was a great turn-out and everyone had a fun time!
The kids had several activities they could do. We had cookies to decorate, ornaments kids could paint and fill with tiny charms and tinsel, homemade play-dough, scooters, a bounce house and tons of little gingerbread houses. Lily really enjoyed decorating her gingerbread house.
Amy and Derek came, and so did Laura and her family! I love that we live close enough to visit!
Decorating Christmas cookies before most people arrived:
Our neighbor friends came, too! Sydney and Lily were born one day apart and love to play at each other's houses. It was fun having Sydney and her family there!
It was potluck so everyone brought lunch items to share. Cole had fun constructing crazy kabobs out of the finger food.
Jude and Mason were thick as thieves as usual. Love these cousins!
Baby Cassidy is getting so big!
Amy and Derek came back to the house to hang out for the day after helping clean up. It was fun to have them! Lance was excited to do perler beads with the master (Amy), and the other kids insisted on joining in.
Thanks for coming!
