Pre-Christmas Activities!

We had a great time doing preparing for Christmas by doing different activities. Lincoln is just starting to enjoy doing activities so it was fun to start some traditions.  

 Went to the temple to look at lights and see the nativity.  Lincoln could hardly contain himself with all the lights.  

 Went to Tuacahn to see the 'Live Nativity'.  This was just a place you could take your picture there. 

 Went and saw Santa... Lincoln loved Santa from a distance but as soon as we handed him over to sit on his lap he instantly freaked out.  I love the look that was captured.  Needless to say he was not a Santa fan.  

 Making tree ornaments.  Lincoln only tried to eat it once.... once he realized it was nasty he had no interest. 

 Made Graham Cracker houses.. Used hot glue to put them together and I must say this is the way to go... so so so much easier and quicker. 

 Lincoln (and Mom) def ate their fair share of frosting and candy-- but surprisingly Lincoln actually would put candy onto his house.  I would put a bunch of icing on it and he would lie the candy on top of it.  

He mostly just wanted to keep stacking stuff on top of the house---  

As you can tell by the mess on his face, in his hair, and on his shirt he enjoyed his first gingerbread house making!
