We attended SFX's annual Breakfast with Santa!
We made gingerbread houses!
Cookie Decorating!
Gavin's enjoying playing winter basketball with a fun group of friends...
Cassidy and I go to "The Nutcracker" each year to see her friend Abby perform...
Gavin and his friend Will (and the dads!) went to a fun Bears game. The Bears beat the Rams!
Cassidy and Gavin sang Christmas songs with their class for SFX's Holiday concert. It was very festive!
More cookie baking...
Tyler played the role of "the innkeeper" during the Early Childhood Christmas Play: The Story of the Nativity. We loved it so much and he did so well with his lines and songs! We were so glad Grandpa Brown could join us for the show!
Cassidy performed in the annual Irish Dance Christmas Show. She looked wonderful and we all enjoy watching her perform on stage. Thanks to Grammy and Grandpa Brown for being there!
We joined some friends for a festive holiday sleigh ride! It was a foggy winter evening and we enjoyed the hot cocoa, the fun ride around the lakefront, and the pretty horses.
We spent an evening at the Botanic Garden to see the Wonderland Express. The grounds are always so beautiful.
Erik and I took in a few holiday parties - some with friends, some with his wonderful WMP co-workers.
Christmas Eve Mass was lovely and helps us remember what the joy of Christmas is all about...

Time to leave milk and cookies (and carrots)!
