we helped
put up christmas lights...

we enjoyed
temple lights (more than once)...

we had donuts and milk, and visited
"bilingual santa" at the kids elementary school...



we went to the
chandler lights festival, where cousins danced in the parade...

we learned about the
nativity, and helped grandma with her arrangements...


and went to different
parties where we visited with "santa's helpers." (my olders are at the age now where they never fail to shout out, "that's not the real santa!" and then we have the talk about how santa can't make it to everyone's parties, so he sends his "helpers" instead.)
