Phew its done and we actually had fun!!!

It seems like I have been planning and working on this Christmas party for months. But on Saturday morning we finally had our Ward Christmas Party. It was a lot of work to plan but everything came together perfectly. We were lucky enough to have a GREAT Santa come and the kids had so much fun. A friend of mine in the 7th ward told me about all this stuff they had made for their party a few years ago so we borrowed the manger scene and all the costumes for our Christmas Program and it was really nice. I like doing a breakfast as opposed to a dinner because it was just easier and people brought breakfast casseroles and we provided muffins, fruit, and juice/milk.

Dave and Miranda Carlile as Mary and Joseph

Greg and Deno Serini as Shephards
Bishop Toone, Aaron Reed, and Brent Fankhauser as the 3 wisemen
Santa read stories to the kids and then they got in line to sit on his lap. He was so great!!

Isn't it the greatest feeling when you clean up the church and know it's over??? We used to be the activities chair and Christmas breakfast was always the craziest!!! It's almost like a last day of school feeling when you know it's over! Congrats on having it done.
