December is a fun time for our Family Home evenings (every Monday night we gather as a family to sing, learn, and share treats!). We have a tradition of doing fun family activities.
1st We decorate our tree the first Monday. The kids love to put on ornaments and drink hot coco.
8th Temple Lights! We always loved visiting the LA temple and visitor’s center and we are going to miss it. But we are thrilled that the Mesa Temple does lights too. If you are near either of those temples check out the beautiful lights. It’s a great Family Night to bundle up and feel close to our Savior.
15th Decorate Gingerbread Houses. This is great activity! Sometimes we cheat make it easier and use Graham Crackers. (Note Sam’s Club crackers don’t break nicely) Then each child could make his own. Grady impressed all the boys by making a creeper from mine craft for his house. We love inviting friends over for this one.
22nd Christmas Caroling. “The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear!” We have been caroling since our oldest was a baby. Sometimes our group is big, sometimes small. In the last couple of years we have enjoyed walking instead of driving. And it’s okay to not be amazing singers (I know I am not) because we can still spread Cheer. If you still aren’t sure, watch the movie Elf.
29th Game night with family. It will be my birthday and I am thinking a family game night might need to happen.
