All kinds of Christmas fun....

We LOVE this season..... so much celebrating to anticipate Jesus' birthday coming up!  Here's some snippets of all the fun....

A "Snow Day" event sponsored by a few Gilbert businesses.... Emma's friend Jill invited us to join their family for this one -
Good ol' snowball fight for a bunch of valley kids who rarely get to play in snow!

Jill's sister Jackie competing for the largest snowball
They also had a rock wall and other fun stuff going on - my girl loves these, even in boots...
...and just for fun :).

Our family's annual "Lights & Trains" night.... we saw a bunch of great displays again this year.....

One of the homes where the entire backyard is taken up with tiny trains & villages that all move and light up, etc.... quite the hobby!

The kids still love the light displays where the lights dance to music, it's fun to stop by a few of those.  We also love strolling through the Val Vista Lakes gardens..... really beautiful -


And another tradition, caroling at a nursing home with all the Girl Scout troops from our church:

Some of my little elves :)

Trees & more trees!  Decorating our own, and later Granna & Papa's tree....




Such a fun & busy time... and more to come :). So thankful for this great season of celebrating!
