Attn: Evans Clan-Grandma Christensen's BIrthday!

I got this picture off of Steve and Deb's camera so that is why the post is late. We made her blow out 84 candles on three birthday cakes...she got them all out but not before the smoke alarm went off! She is such a great Grandma and we love having her so close to us!

Ward party and....SANTA!

We had our ward Christmas party and the girls did a great job singing with the Primary and they LOVED the surprise visitor....SANTA!



Santa wanted to look through Lila's glasses.

The girls all got these cute little cars from Santa.

Abby was so excited to see Santa that she couldn't stop SCREAMING!

Dancing Hali!

Hali loves dance class and she likes to be all dressed and ready
to go 2 hours before dance starts!

Cha-Cha-chachacha---CHA all around the house!
I love it when our girls play together.

Aubrey's Birthday Cake!

Aub's wanted a shoe so here is my attempt.

Christmas Tree Time!

We had a very quiet Thanksgiving this year...just our little family, Grandma and Papa Christensen, Great-Grandma Christensen, and Aunt Janice. We were able to all sit around the table and pass the food instead of serving buffet style like we usually have to do because of the size of our average Thanksgiving dinners. After lunch we spent the rest of the day playing games and visiting. While it was fun...the girls got a little bored so that night we broke out the Christmas tree and put it up! The girls loved decorating the tree and having their picture taken. It's funny how a Christmas tree can instantly bring joy and love to your home (even when you have to leave the bottom 3 feet of tree undecorated for Abby's safety!).

All dressed up!

I got Abby all cute for Sunday and said, "Crea, hurry and take pictures before she pulles out her bow!" So these are what he got....adorable!

new birthday cakes

Well- here are Kindy and Cash's B-day cakes! Kindy wanted a soccer ball and I thought, "no problem." But then I looked up a picture on the internet and made a pentagon stencil and started marking the fondant....the pentagons didn't fit together right so I kept trying different things all day and then I gave up and did a few black and white and then made the back of the ball a goal. After I was finnished I noticed that there are black pentagons, and the white ones are hexagons....I was ready to scream by that point so I just added the last few things and stepped away from the cake.
Then was Cash's- he wanted a basketball and it was so much better than the soccer ball. No stress, just fun. I added the score board to say the happy bday stuff and his age-11 and had him beating his sister who likes to mother him....I think he liked that.
