This was our 4th Reindeer Games and we enjoyed having the Hughes family join us!
We played some games outside and had great weather!
We headed inside for a few more games and finished the night with salad and pizza.
Baking Gingerbread
Yes, not only did we make gingerbread men, we made gingerbread rockets. Makin had that idea quite a while ago so we had to make it happen. They had lots of fun decorating both people and rockets!

Making Bird Feeders
Northwood Christmas Festival
We headed about an hour away to check out a church's Christmas festival I heard about years ago. It was very affordable and sounded like a great activity to try out. While we probably won't go again, we enjoyed our evening. :)
We started off the night with a petting zoo and inflatable slides.
Then we enjoyed a hayride that took us to various scenes through Jesus' life, which had live actors at every stop. It was all people volunteering from their church playing the part of the scene over and over for each hayride.

Polar Express Movie Night
Our usual Polar Express movie night became a night with friends this year. Trying to fit in our date-night exchange meant the Hughes kiddos joined us for our fun! The kids were memorized by the movie and had fun with their hot chocolate concoctions. :) Brad even punched their first initial on their ticket. :)
