Christmas Festivities

Like every year, we went to the Mesa Temple to see their Christmas lights. They have an amazing set up! They also have a big room set up with Nativity Scenes from all over the world. It was cool to see the difference in the different countries. And of course the kids loved being there with cousins and Gma Jo and Papa Lars. 


Reagan & Brentlee

Nash & Bryson

Quincy & Carson. He really wanted to play with her but she had had enough.

Bryson and Nash on top of Katie and Davids shoulders. They stayed on shoulders the entire time there.

We all had fun lugging(sp?) around these cool kids!

Brian and Brentlee having fun

And of course we had to decorate cookies so we had some to set out for Santa! Surprisingly, it wasn't as messy as I thought it was going to be! They all loved licking their fingers and of course tasting 1 or 2 cookies. Brentlee was excited to take some back to Grandma T's so she could leave some for Santa. 


And some times they got a little carried away with the sprinkles but I just let them do what they wanted and cleaned up after they were all done.

The boys insisted that Papa help them

Cookie monsters!:)

I had to run to the Harley shop to grab a couple Christmas gifts and while I was there they told me Santa would be there with milk and cookies in about an hour so we all went back to grab Reagan from her dance recital practice and came back to see Santa! I was quite impressed with how well all the kids did. I'm not sure if Santa had a little to drink before or if that's just how he normally is. The kids loved it though! 

Instead of a sleigh, he rode a motorcycle! Imagine that ;)

Cookies, milk and coloring

They all told them what they wanted and sat there and talked to him. Well he asked questions and had no idea what they said!
