December 2 - December 8 2018

We had more snow! We went out and played till the kids were soaked and freezing! Of course, they didn't notice. They would've stayed out all day if we'd let them.

Playing in the kitchen:)

Maylee took this:

Not sure why I have this picture..I think it was from when I had the Little Atwells sing Happy Birthday to Grandma.

Maylee had her debut ballet dance recital this week. She. Killed. It. Seriously....she was AMAZING!!! She was graceful, determined, and focused. Daniel and I were beyond proud of her. She completely blew us out of the water. Dance is definitely in her blood. Yay!

Eleanor waiting for Maylee to come on.

Afterwards, we gave Maylee a bouquet of roses and a balloon. We got two pink heart balloons; one for Maylee and one for Eleanor. We got a blue star balloon for Dalton. I got them something as well because they sit with me every week for 45 minutes while Maylee does her class. They get bored and restless, but they're little troopers. Getting Maylee to do these dance classes has been a family affair, so why wouldn't we get something for Dalton and Eleanor, too?!

Tried to get some pictures of her hair/outfit:

Daniel's homework buddy:

We had our ward Christmas party. It was Polar Express themed and was so wonderful! They had face painting:

And of course, Santa Claus! Dalton told him he wanted a big blue monster truck, Maylee told him she wanted a bow and arrow, and Eleanor told him she wanted a purple ballerina barbie.

Family pic:)

The Little Atwells (along with all the other primary children) got to be in the (very short...thank you!) Nativity play as animals. Mary and Joseph were wearing big bathroom towels. They stood in front of Eleanor and she immediately went to the front of the stage and started crying. Daniel went and got her and when he brought her to me she told me she was scared because she saw a ghost. Haha! I thought that was so cute and hilarious.

We love you Little Atwells!
