Saturday's Festivities

Yesterday, we enjoyed several Christmas festivities. It started with the Winter Wonderland activity at Intel.

Look who we saw!

Mrs. Claus was there as well.

They had a number of crafts and games for the kids to play. The kids enjoyed tossing beanbag snowmen at targets.

There was hand and face painting. Sarah got a wreath and Megan a Christmas tree.

Matthew got Batman, drawn by daddy.

Sarah also got some candy canes on her face.

Decorating cookies. Matthew was super excited that he could participate in this activity this time. (Yeah for outgrowing dairy allergy!)

Wise man Matthew.

Wise woman and wise man.

Wise woman Megan.

Cone toss.

The girls made bracelets with pipe cleaners and beads. U made Matthew reindeer antlers.

Sarah got a heart balloon, Matthew an airplane and Megan a butterfly.

Merry Christmas!

We then headed to the mall where we gave some toys to the firemen toy drive. Each of the kids had been saving up money for awhile and enjoyed picking out a toy to give. We then went on a ride on the fire truck.

Me and Matthew in the front of the equipment truck.

Megan, Sarah and daddy in the back.

Fancy old engine decorated with lots of lights.

Cricket had a snow globe that Megan and Matthew enjoyed jumping in and throwing around the "snow."

Sarah and I did a bit of shopping while U took Megan and Matthew. They liked "riding" the rides (no money required), visiting the Lego store and playing in the play area.
