The Amazing Race!
I tried posting this a few days ago, but managed to make a mess of things. I have tried to turn off the high-lighter but cannot figure it out. I guess I am stuck with it! Here it is, again, with a few changes
Oh my! Has it really been 4 weeks since I last posted? Mike says it's high time I got on this. Hopefully, I will one day get to a catch-up post to let you in on the past four weeks, but, today I just want to fulfill a request that my kids keep making that I will let them know the agenda for our Christmas time activities.
Christmas Eve
The day will be very unstructured, but dinner will be at 6 followed by preparations for the Christmas Eve program which will start at 8 p.m. After the Nativity, I am inviting each family unit to prepare a short (1-2 minutes) song or story or scripture or picture that has to do with the true meaning of Christmas. Even with seven family groups, it should only take 15 minutes. Please?!
Christmas Day
Socks and Santa followed by breakfast. Both teams need to be ready for the Cook-Off at 2 p.m.
Saturday, December 26
We can sleep in, but not for too long, because I have so much fun planned for this day! We are going to split into teams and play The Amazing Race! I am having a blast planning the clues. The reward will not be a million dollars, but a million memories. You will love it.
Sunday
Church goes from 11:00 until 2:00. We have been telling all our new ward friends about our kids, so I hope you will all plan to attend so we can show you off.
Lights on temple square that night
Monday
Kristi got us tickets to Let's Make A Deal in Las Vegas! I will arrange for babysitters for anyone who wants one, but you need to be thinking about what you plan to wear. Chuck thinks we ought to have one person dress up like a farmer and everyone else come as pigs. Dad has requested that someone please think of something else! I do know that they are kind of picky about what they let through...one lady came dressed as a referee and they conviscated her whistle!
I am excited to see you all. I love this time of year. I think our Heavenly Father must be very happy to see families gathering together throughout the world. As we celebrate the birth of our Savior, I am especially grateful for the sure knowledge that He made it possible for us all to be together eternally.
