Season of Giving

Today was a giving day. We made 8 dozen cookies last night to bring to the teachers at Davis early this morning. Sam and I had to divide and conquer because Wii was being recognized at school this morning too. He took Wii and Alex, and I took Natalie, Lucy, and the cookies. Luckily Sam captured Wii’s recognition on video. 😊

  After the morning chaos, Lucy and I prepared for our secret Santa reveal party. It has been loads of fun seeing what shows up each night. Monday was fettuccine Alfredo. Tuesday was snowmen cake balls. Wednesday it was a blanket, hot chocolate, candy canes, and cutest thing ever: acorns! Obviously they have little ones helping! ☺️Thursday was a DIY night with make your own ornaments, waffle cone Christmas trees, sprinkles, and frosting. So cute! We had pack meeting at Garnet Hill right before our party, so we went and sang carols there first.   The boys did wonderful. Lucy, thankfully, stayed asleep until right when we were leaving. Otherwise, she would have been hungry and probably screaming. The residents were so happy to have the kids there. Afterwards, we went to our party.   We had treats and were revealed to our family that we “gifted.” Then, the family that had us, revealed themselves to us. It was the Anguianos! We suspected them, but weren’t for sure. Lillia was so proud of the acorns she gave us. She is such a sweet girl! Lucy really likes her too.
