Weekend Wrap-Up: The Happy Birthday Auntie Mari Edition!

First up, today is Auntie Mari’s Birthday! Hooray!


We hope it was a fabulous day!

As for the rest of the weekend- it was filled with fun holiday activities. Yesterday morning Callie and I went downtown and with Boom to a greyhound get together- and Iris got to meet Santa! 


She was not a Santa fan, but eventually posed for a picture with Santa on the floor. (Maya was still sick, so she and Chris got to go to the minute clinic instead. It’s just a bad virus, and she is now doing better).

Later we just hung out at home.


This morning we went to see Boom play the bells (see video later). Lucy and Auntie Yoda came too, so we were quite the crew at church!


Then Maya had her Christmas program. She was a “royal” part of the Christmas story, and chose to wear a pink crown (in many ways).


But ultimately didn’t wear it when she went up there.


The we went to Dan and Hanna’s house, and the headed out to get a Christmas tree! We didn’t cut one down this year, but found a good one at the YMCA.


Everyone came back to our house for cider and got chocolate and to decorate our tree.


Tonight we continued playing Callie’s newly made up and favorite game (of which Auntie Cat was winner earlier in the afternoon): Drawing Contest. Someone comes up with a theme, and then two people draw something, and someone judges who wins.


Maya’s chosen theme? FRIES.


In case you are curious what our elves have been up to, here is some photographic evidence.


And I’ll leave you with video of the bells and Maya not singing at all during her Sunday school program.



It is making me very curious about how her preschool program will go on Thursday!

Have a great week.
