With my parents serving in Washington, Sharon hosted us for a Wilcox Family Christmas Party. It was pleasant and fun. The kids played well, the adults played well and it was so fun together. Sharon made graham cracker houses that the kids got to decorate. It was so fun and they were very creative. I kept forgetting to help Seth get frosting for his candy, Jeremy rescued me and jumped in.
Sharon also came up a bean bag toss game that changed 3 times to do white elephant gifts. The kids had a blast.
This nugget loved trying out all the things before anyone played the games. She was adorable when it was her turn. She'd just toss them and not really pay attention to where she tossed them.
This one caught my parents. Brad set up a skype call so that they could participate with everything. It was cute, you'd have one kid go talk to them, then the next kid would go as the other wandered off. It was so fun. It might not have been 100% action packed for them, but it was fun to have them "there".
This had me cracking up. Seth has actually grown a lot in the last couple of months. He's a very active and very large kid. When he jumps at you, it feels like someone tossed a large stone in your lap that's wiggly and doesn't like to listen when you say stop. In the picture, see how Jer is so nonchalant? Yeah, that's because this is a very normal part of sitting with Seth. Jer once described him as flubber…. continual movement. (Until he's at Grandma Robertson's house that has the Disney Chanel... then he really will sit like a rock for 6 hours).
