Catching up

So I'm a bit behind on blogging our family fun.... So here's something to catch you up. Starting with last Friday night we went to the Christmas Party at my parents ward. Joshua and Luke both did surprisingly well with Santa. We were one of the first people there, so we could take as much time as we needed to slowly approach Santa.

Following Santa, still at the party, they had a marionette puppet show. Joshua LOVED it. He was dancing around to the music the whole time.
Saturday, as you've hopefully all seen in the video, was my piano recital. Joshua did a little number and was adorable. Here is his forced smile (which is 99% of the time with closed eyes).
My cousin Jennifer and kids came into town from Idaho for 2 days - so we hit Fashion Island and Disneyland with the Kids. Her little ones are Reagan and Tanner (who's 6 months younger than Joshua).

So here we are arriving at Disneyland. We had so many layers on Luke because it was freezing - at least for California standards. We had tons of fun - but the boys were pretty tired at the end of the afternoon - so we skipped out on the parade.

Joshua super cute by Santa's reindeer.

Bop Peter and Grammie met us there as well. It's so much easier with all the extra hands!
