We officially put up the Stephens family Christmas tree and the kids were soooo excited. We put our little artificial tree upstairs as our "Jesse tree". The kids have enjoyed sitting by it each night, reading the verses corresponding to the day and thinking about how the ENTIRE Bible points to a Savior. We are really enjoying our family time this Christmas. We made Christmas cookies last night and then drove around looking at Christmas lights. We plan on doing this quite a bit before Christmas since Isaiah just says "Ohhhohhh" over and over at each light we see. It is adorable.
We also went downtown to the lighted Christmas parade. This is how Isaiah started the parade...
After a few cars and trucks came by with lights all over them he turned into this...
By the end he was sitting in the stroller saying "more, ohhhh"
Here are a few pictures from our cookie making excitement.
Savannah rolling out the dough (side note, look at that belly growing, wow!)
Isaiah kept picking up little pieces of dough and saying oohhhh to hand to us as if they were cookies, it was sweet!
The first batch all decorated
Daddy getting in on the action
He LOVED shaking sprinkles alllll over the cookies and cookie sheet
Savannah on the other hand was more precise and detailed. I love the concentration on her face!
We will be sure to keep you up to date on Christmas season excitement soon!
