Last weekend we had two very special visitors! TJ's sisters Tiff and Cass came to visit us! We had a great time while they were here. Lily could hardly wait for them to come! They came in Thursday night after Lily went to bed, so Friday morning the first thing she said was, "I play with Ninny and Cassie now!" They played hard and enjoyed each other!
Friday we went to see Tangled. That night we went to the Denver Botanical Gardens at Chatfield. They were a lot of fun. It was the perfect night to go too! It was in the 40's when we got there and the upper 30's when we left. They had old tractors decorated as well as the old barn and houses. We will surely go back!
Saturday morning I took my Activity Day Girls to a service project at the Denver Health Hospital. While I was gone, TJ, Lily and Tiff and Cass went to the Library. Lily still talks about going to the Library with Tiff and Cass. When I got home, we headed up to Georgetown. We shouldn't have gone, but at least we saw reindeer! TJ really should have stayed at home in bed. He felt horrible, but since his sisters were in town, he tried to suck it up. When we got there, we were let down by what they had going on. Santa was supposed to be there but he was nowhere in sight. At least Lily got to ride the school bus and see reindeer! We wont be going back to the Christmas Village in Georgetown!
To say that Lily was excited about the school bus, is an understatement! Every place we drive, Lily is on the lookout for buses! To actually ride on one made her day!
Sunday we went to Church and then played and made Gingerbread houses! It was a super fun day playing games and decorating our houses. TJ and I had to redeem ourselves after our horrible gingerbread houses we made while we were dating! We had success with our gingerbread not falling apart this time! Lily LOVED decorating almost as much as she enjoyed eating the candy! She was a little sad when I told her she was done with candy! Then to avoid going to bed, she pulls the, " Now we have hot chocolate and watch the Prophet!" bit! How do you tell your daughter that we cant watch the Prophet? So we watched the first two songs and told her it was over. The next day we watched the whole thing with her for Family Home Evening!
