Our homeschool group organizes a Christmas party for each age group. The HS party had an impressive attendance and it was a nice chance for Lorelei to get to know some kiddos a bit more.
We enjoyed Reindeer Games again this year.

| We discovered we need to have Rubber band Shooting 101 as a homeschool class. Makin coached his teammates as he was one of the few who could shoot a rubber band! |

| Holiday Pie always brings lots of laughs. The pie partners are such troopers! |
We tried a new lights location and had one disappointment (no special fountain/music like I found on the website) but we enjoyed the lights we did see. We then stumbled upon a firehouse that puts on a singing lights show. So. Fun. It had a lot of upbeat songs that the boys loved.
We tried out the PGA one night and took in their lights, got a sweet treat, and sat through a portion of a country Christmas concert.

| Never underestimate our love of ice cream... even when you need to wear coats while eating it outside! |
I was so thankful Lorelei was a huge help with the many cookie requests this year. Makin pitched in a bit as well.
We took in The Grinch (2018 as always for us) again at Brewflix this year. We had many at-home movie nights throughout the month as well.
The rest of this year's movies:
The Star, The Santa Clause Trilogy, Home Alone 1 and 2, To Grandmother's House We Go, The Nutcracker Four Realms, It's A Wonderful Life, White Christmas
Lorelei made her pizza into a candy cane one evening. We also fit in some Christmas games that night.
"Let It Snow" was the theme this year. I've learned to keep the food relatively the same (donut holes, fruit, bacon, and waffles with sugar) and just change the theme for the table. I was elated when I stumbled upon fresh greenery on an errand so I didn't have to dig out my winter decor like I had planned. :)
We enjoyed advent readings after supper throughout the month.
Lorelei had fun drawing a village on the dry erase board.
