Random, Thanksgiving & Christmas Decor

Found these random pictures of the boy playing with trash bags.  
He is dressed up as a Ninjago - Zane - practicing his ninja moves.



Every year the primary does a program in Sacrament Meeting so show the parents what they have been learning all year.  They sing lots of songs and each child gets to say something at the microphone.  Owen gave a talk about what is means to follow Jesus Christ's example.  As part of the program, they have the children decorate the programs - this is the one the Owen did - he is helping someone that fell down.


 For Thanksgiving, Chris wanted to go participate in our Ward Turkey-bowl.  So off we went.


Owen took some Beyblades, so he wasn't bored.


Supervising the other children kick the football.

In the back ground in Chris, he caught a pass and was headed for the endzone.

Same run...

no one was chasing him, so it was a TOUCHDOWN - but no victory dance, just running back to play some  more.


For Thanksgiving, we went over to our good friends' home.  We ate lots of really good food, played a lot, and visited.  It was a nice relaxing day.

Friday was a day for Christmas decorating.  Chris got the tree up and then we decorated.





Saturday was the day for outside decorating.  We should have checked the weather, because it was really cold on Saturday and Friday had been really nice - we should have done outside on Friday and inside on Saturday.  Oh, well!  Chris is a die-hard, so out he went to decorate. The boy helped a little.



Finished products.







We are also doing our thankful leaves, but there is no tree this year.  We are doing a thankful leaf pile instead.  It has been going well and we realize all the blessings we have in our lives.
