Oreo cookie kids

This is our Oreo cookie advertisement campain:
Hmmm... Oreos! And milky too! Yummy yum!

PS: That was Sunday lunch quickly scrumbled-up desert - I think it worked.

Temple Square lights

This was our annual trip to Temple Square to see the lights. It was a wonderful beginning of our Christmas season. Grandma Tena volunteer (or rather was recruited :)) to go with us. We all had a good time - I did. It is getting better each year - kids seem to be less winy or we are more resilient. We all loved it - the key was leaving early to beat the crowds.

Please eat!

Just some cute breakfast pictures - these are mainly for our wonderful daddy. We can't wait to eat breakfast with you! We love you very much!!!

Candy party for the baby

OK, this was not any baby, it was baby Jesus party. Notice the presents for the baby in the background. He even had a bottle of milk there. How cute!



The party turned into building baby Jesus a gingerbread house out of graham crackers and frosting. That was a lot of tasting and even more fun. We hid a surprise under the roof (skulls and bones candy left over from Halloween :)).

Of course, there had to be a lot of frosting and candy to make it beautiful. Tommy was making sure there was a neat pattern, Emma just wanted to decorate it to her own liking. While "the family" watched. We even had a bell guard (if you notice the little person next to the door).

And eating it with Tommy's friend Ian was just as much fun as making it.

Tommy's Thanksgiving Play

Tommy was an indian and a bellringer.



Look at me, mom!

The kids worked really hard and the play turned out wonderful.

Thanksgiving Feast

Grandpa pulling out the turkey - it was soooo juicey and yummy. Tommy was sampling and ate a ton even before the dinner.
