The church put on a western themed Christmas party. It was very wonderful and many people showed up. There was plenty of food and we felt very blessed to be part of such service and ward participation (the members provided almost everything themselves). There was a video of Christ played while we ate and our children really loved it. Then the children gathered around Santa and they all were able to visit with him. Vigo was a sweetheart and gave his stuffed animal to a little girl who was too scared to go visit Santa herself. Unfortunately when he went back there were no more but the next day a member of the bishopric, Brother Casias brought him one to church! How sweet for him to have cared enough to do that! Speaking of the next day mom had to sing some duets in the choir, something that totally pushed her limits. But she is still alive so we now know you can't drop dead from fear of singing....maybe pass out.
The school the children are attending is very active and very fun spirited. They put up a winter wonderland for the children and their families to be able to go up and take pictures with Santa. They worked really hard. Vigo was on some type of hyperactive caffinated mode that day because he was bouncing off the wall and there could be no more frustrated or embarressed parents but alas it's the small stuff and we survived...and Vigo is off his high, how long that will last we shall see!
