Christmas Break!!!

It's so nice to be off...I go back to work on Jan. 3rd. The girls and I have been enjoying our time together! We've been doing all kinds of crafts, these were my two favorites:


We made mini cupcake jewelry boxes
They turned out so cute!


We also made Letter Art...











I'm going to make a set for Katie, her's will be in green, yellow and brown to match her room. I can't wait to put them up in their rooms....

Christmas Spirit

I love this time of year! Neal and I really wanted the girls to have great memories of the holidays and feel the spirit of Christmas...we've been trying to involve them in some great activities to help them realize how blessed we are and how important it is to serve others.

We had a fun weekend...We had our ward Christmas party and ward program. We also took the girls to the temple to see the lights and various displays... The girls loved all the lights!
It's amazing how fast the girls are growing...the temple is so beautiful, Leah told me she loves how she feels when she visits the temple and she can't wait to go inside!


The trees were beautiful...this one was my favorite. I'm so greatful for all of my blessings, my family and friends. I have so much gratitude and love for my Savior.

Door Decorating Contest

Were having a door decorating contest at school! We had to include Christmas, Kwanzaa and Hanukkah...it's hard to see in this picture but everything is 3-D on the door, I painted the earth and snow in the window. I painted the lights around the window and had the kids tell me if they had one wish what it would be and I put them on the big lights. It was lot's of fun! The judging will be this Wednesday!
