We continued to stink it up for the rest of December as far as Christmas activities go. I did not do what we normally would do, and I do feel bad about that, but I also think we did get enough fun activities in and know we can always try again next year! One of the fun things we actually did was go see The Polar Express in the theater. We each got special golden tickets, just like in the book, and there were even conductors there to punch our tickets for the "train". This was Lilly's first movie in the theater, and she did great! We were pleasantly surprised! After the movie, Santa, Mrs. Claus, Rudolph, and a gingerbread man came to take pictures and talk. It was a great morning!
After the movie, Jovan took the girls to the Children's Museum so I could get a little shopping done. In the "Santa's Magic" show, they were finally able to meet Elsa! They were SO excited!
It was our turn to host Christmas this year, so my family was all in town for the holidays. We had a great time hanging out, shopping, and having my mom cook for us. :) Christmas was so much fun this year!
