Can you tell where the oatmeal landed when McKay was in-charge of the spoon? Now I remind him, 'nice and slow', with each bite he takes. He gets excited and goes too fast and oatmeal flies off the spoon REALLY well.
McKay loves to peek at us when we open the fridge. Some games never get old!Tuesday night we went to Palo Alto to the Christmas Creche exhibit. We were not allowed to take pictures but you can click here to go to the website. We were able to watch a Marionette show about the birth of Christ, which McKay really enjoyed, especially when we sang songs. It was amazing to see the different nativity scenes from all over the world. Each one was so unique and reflected the country in which it was created. All of them had a Baby Jesus even if instead of sheep or donkeys they had elephants. We figured that at least 50% of the people there were not members of our faith and several of the nativities had been loaned by other churches in the area. What a wonderful tool to bring the community together, in our church building, to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. No one who attended this amazing event could have any doubt that we are christians. Every room in that church was filled with nativities and a sweet spirit. We plan to make the Creche exhibit a part of our Christmas each year.

We had a creche exhibit here this past weekend as well. That is something we look forward to each year. But I am thinking next year Scott and I might have to make it a date and leave the kids at home. It was a little stressful with Jackson and all those breakables. The "security" people kept on following us around. Loved the peeking picture of McKay. Lashelle
I still have to remind my boys to slow down and take it easy when they eat. Sometimes I have to remind them to CHEW!
It sounds like you're making great Christmas memories this year. See you soon!
That does sound wonderful! hee hee about Lashelle's post and the security. Pooh on you for figuring out a new, creative way to do your Christmas letter! :) I was trying to come up with a new way that hadn't been done yet (to my knowledge) and so far nothing. It's a really good letter by the way. Love you and Merry Christmas!
