December Fun

December is always a busy month and it was no different this year. Here's a glimpse into our crazy month...



Ivins Family Christmas Party

My Mom was in charge of the nativity story at the Christmas party this year. Of course she went all out and made it quit the production. She made the cutest nativity scene with animals, the inn's, and the manger. It was darling.



The beautiful angel choir


D.J. was Joseph this year and wasn't too happy about it. LOL I think he liked the attention, he just didn't like that he had to 'pretend' he was married. Girls are gross remember. :)


Luke was a handsome little shepard.

After eating and the nativity we had a special visitor...Santa Claus!


D.J. 9 years old


Luke 6 years old


Liberty 3 years old


Happy Birthday Trevor!




During the first week of December we celebrated Trevor's 33rd birthday. The kids decorated the kitchen for him and we made his favorite, spice cake with brown sugar frosting.

Making a Gingerbread House


Each year in December we have a family home evening where we make a gingerbread house. The kids really got into it this year. Each of them picked a side and made it their own. I think it turned out great.



The finished project...perfect!


This is just a few of the fun things we enjoyed in December.

Of course Christmas was a blast...I'll be posting about that soon. :)
