Christmas Party

Our first activity in the brand new church building. The branch (name for the congregation, based on size) has been working towards this for the past 6 years, while meeting in the cafeteria (affectionately named the chapelteria) of a junior high school in Port Washington, WI. Needless to say, it was quite wonderful to have a building in time to host the first annual Branch Christmas party.
This is most of the primary (name for the organization for the children 18 months - 12 years old). There were a few families missing and I couldn't get all that were there in one shot. When the branch first started 6 years ago, there were 3 primary children. Now look at them all!

Jacob with his collar standing up like Joseph Smith. For any of you that remember, he is still asking for the remote controlled hippopotamus . He prayed the other night that Santa would be able to figure out how to make it work and get rid of the glitches. It was 2 Christmases ago that he asked for it and he is keeping the faith that Santa will prevail. Anybody out there got any advice for Santa?!
What a smile.

Addie would have no part of it whatsoever. She did say on the way home that it would be okay for Santa to come and give her presents as long as he didn't look at her. Got that Santa!

I just LOVE Christmas.
