Santa, Gingerbread houses, and Festival of Nativities

The kids sat on Santa's lap at Factoria mall. It took all morning to get the kids ready for this. Myles has a bow tie like Rhett's but it didn't look comfortable for him, so we went with the winter vest. Caramel looks like she is too old for Santa in this picture; she is only 5 and a half. After we went to the Kidsquest museum where Caramel did a polar bear scavenger hunt and dance-a-long.  


Traveled over to Grandpa Dan's to make gingerbread houses. Caramel picked out the big house and the rest of the family had small houses. Rhett's house had a garage of course. It was hard keeping the candy on the houses and I can see where candy has magically disappeared. Our new decorating candy this year was gum. Gum is great for doors and driveways. This activity cleaned out all the Halloween candy we still had in the kitchen.

Next to the Temple was a Festival of Nativities in the church building we viewed. There were a ton of Nativities. It was hard to keep Rhett from touching all of them. In the chapel different groups sang including a primary group, the kids listened for a bit. There was an activity room for the kids and a dress up nativity room. We didn't do the manager picture like we have before.
