ROBERTSON PARTY

As you can see we like to party at our house, this is the party at my parents house we always have dinner then my Mom takes all the grandkids in her room to get dressed up for the nativity, my Dad reads the story and they come out and are so good and quiet during this time, (the second the costumes are off it is not so quiet), we then exchange presents, my mom got us girls all a making memory slice (the newdie cutter) I was soooo excited thanks Mom! This year all the kids got to spend the night and have a Christmas sleep over they had a blast, Jeff and I went to Twin and finished up a little last minute shopping, thanks a fun night!

Maylee's Dance Recital and the Gillette Party

Maylee had her first dance recital tonight she did so good, she did not want anyone to watch so once again we snuck in! She looked so cute in her cute dance jammies, she got right on that stage and did not miss one step!

Gillette party

We went to my Dad's family christmas party after Maylee's dance recital it was lots of fun to see everyone, we had a Mexican fiesta dinner, the kids sang songs to us and we played our traditional trade 3 times gift exchange.

Christmas at Uncle Tim's and Aunt Jana

Every year Jeff's Aunt and Uncle do Christmas Fireside with dinner. It was so cool this year they asked us all to e-mail pictures of us with our kids teaching something about Christ, they made a cool slideshow with music, Jana told a really fun story and we ate yummy soup. I loved this night it was so much fun and was a reminder of the Savior at Christmas!

Ward Christmas Party

Gracie and Santa

Braden and Santa

Tonight was our ward party, it was lots of fun they had Santa and dinner, then each organization put on a skit or play Braden kept telling me that he was Joseph I did not know if it was for the party or for Sunday, I asked him what he had to do and he said I just have to stand by Preslee that's all, well if you see these pictures you can tell that he did just what he was told, he stood by Preslee and did not sing a word, after I asked him why he did not sing he told me that he was told all he had to do to be Joseph was stand by Mary! Now if it was that easy with him all the time we would have something for sure!

Uncle Denton's Christmas Party

Every year Denton invites everyone over for a fun yet different kind of party, he is the senator and goes to lots of conventions and receives all sorts of fun little prizes for example, notebooks, hats, pens, fans, coasters, bags, waterbottles, and much much more. He runs the party a little different each year this year the kids drew numbers and got prizes according to there numbers, then at the end he holds up an item and if you want it you raise your hand, it is a blast to go see the fun treasures he has collected, the best part is seeing how excited he gets!

Making Gingerbread Houses

We made Gingerbread houses for the first time this year. The kids loved it, much to my surprise and joy when we opened the kit the house was pre-made, so we made the frosting and they decorated like crazy! Gracie enjoyed watching and trying to grab the house a couple of times!
