We had a great Holiday season this year. We started early, mid November, and went strong through the New Year. This family likes to party!
Chris and Macy kicked it off at the Community Lighting of the Trees Festival. The community center was packed with Christmas trees, Santa, face paint, crafts, and more. Outside was a petting zoo and sleigh rides.
Macy loved getting her hair done. Pink and black was her request!
Later in November we visited Santa at the Sherwood Park Mall. Going early in the season is great, no lines! I think this was Macy's first year talking to Santa and not being shy. Rachel did pretty good letting him hold her, but they had previously bonded when she was just 3 weeks old.
We put up the tree and lights and Christmas decorations near the end of November, in time for our American Thanksgiving celebration.
Classic plate shot. It was so good!
This year we had a family from our ward over, the Fixen's. It was a fun night.
Not pictured was our sleigh ride down Whyte Ave. It was great. We went on probably the warmest Saturday of the month, and Santa was even on our sleigh. The horse pulled sleigh was right on the public roads with the rest of the traffic. It was lots of fun and something we would do again.
We decorated cookies and ate WAY too much. Generous neighbours and friends supplied us with even more goodies. We were never hungry during this season.
I did some Christmas crafts. The girls hand prints! I love how they turned out!
And of course lots of dancing!
It was great to spend lots of time as a family and making holiday memories!
