christmas weekend fun

 Christmas is coming and the festivities have begun!  There are so many fun things to do we are having a hard time choosing what things to do since a lot of them overlap.  We decided to do our town's Christmas celebration downtown Friday night.  We met our friends there so that made it extra fun.  They had all the downtown shops open and they all had little treats like hot chocolate or cookies or little treats of some kind.  There was a tree lighting and a choir.  Santa was there.  There was a live nativity with real camels and there were free carriage rides.  The carriage rides were a big hit with the girls.  It was chilly, but not horrible and we kept thinking, "oh my goodness.  I can't believe we are outside for hours in December".  After checking out the live nativity we went and got hot chocolate with our friends.  It was such a fun night and the the girls kept talking about the carriage rides.  Savanna kept calling them "carousal rides."




 Tonight we went to the stake center, which is next to the Nashville temple.  There was a big nativity activity and choir singing. There were so many cool nativities and the girls really liked walking around the temple.  The girls had so much fun and we had fun just being with them.  After putting the girls to bed I heard Heidi singing Christmas songs to Savanna to help her fall asleep.  It was so cute.  I love Christmastime!
