Christmas Traditions

 Mary was so proud that she lost her first two teeth.
 A couple of weeks ago James asked me if we had any Christmas traditions, we talked about some and yes we have been doing it. My mom made gingerbread houses and we spent and evening putting them together.  The kids had a great time and did pretty good. James and Mary even did pretty good with the frosting bags. Mary liked to put a big glob of frosting and then decorate it. James wasn't worried about what the house looked like, he just didn't want any part of the yard bear. Emily just would grab a piece of candy and put it anywhere. 




 It had been a few years since we had been to see the lights at Temple Square. It was beautiful and crowded. James really enjoyed seeing the nativities from different places. Mary got cold.

 We made Christmas sugar cookies with Grandma Stephenson and all the crew! The kids had a great time!
