The kids got a lot of "pretend school" related toys this year. Chalkboard/Dry Erase board, magna doodles, and papers. It was fun to see them play together and play school.
Alyssa got a tent that is just her size. She went in and out of that tent, and would bring her baby in with her. One time Mom even came in with her (it was pretty squishy with Mom in there).
Some more "school" play. Brea is writing her letters and Jackie & Dallin our teaching Alyssa.
Our traditional finger-food on Christmas Eve! It is a fun tradition and everyone helps out in making the food.
This year we had: little smokies, hot dogs in crescent rolls, shrimp, chips, crackers & cheese, Pop, candy cane sugar cookies, relish tray, fruit, and candy.
We all got fuzzy PJ's on Christmas Eve. This is not usually one of our traditions, but it was a much needed gift for everyone this year.
Grandma Ricks gave Jackie and Brea these cute poodle dresses for their dolls. They both put them on their dolls that day, they looked super cute.
Alyssa got a baby with a bottle and pacy. She was such a good Mommy letting the baby have her pacy every 5 minutes because she was "crying". She loves babies and daily is totting one around or pushing one in a stroller. Her favorite is still "Wyatt".
Dallin got a baseball mitt from Dad. He has gotten into baseball a little this year, but he didn't have a mitt that fit him. Now he can play with Dad and actually catch the ball.
Dallin also got some roller blades. The kids have enjoyed learning how to skate this year. Dallin tried out his new skates at the church, and did great. Brea got her skates for her birthday and Dallin was always trying to put them on and skate with them. Now they can both skate together.
