Christmas Fun

Thanks for everyone's thoughtful comments and ideas for our 12 days of Christmas. We went with the idea of doing a nativity and giving her a piece every day. The kids are loving it and I have found it is helping me focus on something every day that is a little extra special as I run around frantically trying to finish everything up. (Don't tell Tim, but I just bought some fabric to make the girls skirts for Sunday - he'll give me the lecture about that I try to do too much and I stress myself out - but tradition is more important, right?)

Anyway, we had a fun Ward Christmas Party last Saturday and they had a fun little activity to do at our tables while there was a pause in between the program. I thought maybe if there was ANYONE out there that is sooo organized and everything is all done you might find the time to try and figure out the songs. It's called "Guess the Christmas Carol". Let me know how many you get right. If you want I can post the answers later. (Mom, I'm sure you don't have time to do this but I know you will do it - you can't control yourself when it comes to puzzles.)

Is google-ing allowed? The Brown's had another stupendous Christmas Party/Ornament Exchange (you were missed...) and during the game like this some of the guys were google-ing the answers! Scandalous. Where's the Christmas spirit in that? :)
