One of the reasons we love Christmas so much is that it's a time when family traditions are especially important. Here are some photos from a few of our favourite Christmas traditions from 2011.
One tradition is our ward Christmas party. The format is a little different every year but it always involves a delicious meal and good friends. This year, the primary children were asked to perform a play of the nativity. Connor was pleased to act out the part of the Roman centurion declaring the decree from Caesar Augustus.
Most of the kids dressed up as angels (you can never have too many angels!) That's Maira hanging onto the hem of her angel dress.
Hudson was a really cute sheep for the 10 seconds he left the sheep hat on his head. For most of the play, he blended right in with the angels. (Below is the best picture I've got of him - he also never held still the whole time).
After the play, a sweet old man from another ward who loves to dress up as Santa stopped by to visit with the children.
Of course, another tradition is decorating the Christmas tree which we always do together at the end of November/beginning of December.
And one more tradition is going to the grounds of the Legislature Building to look at all the lights.
