Birthday Party for Jesus

Ella, Will and Cal hosted a little birthday party for Jesus a couple of days before Christmas. The kids decorated cookies, attempted to make Christmas tree ornaments and listened to a brief rendition of why Jesus' birthday affects the how's and why's of our Christmas celebrations. Our crew certainly had fun celebrating with their friends!

Not quite sure how sanitary 8 preschoolers decorating cookies is with finger licking and cookie consumption...both of which are displayed in the photo below. The fun is well worth the germs, if you ask me!


The looks of concentration while cookie decorating:
Happy faces:
Baker's attempt to read to the kids about Jesus' birth:

This is where you could find Cal for most of the party, enjoying some fun one-on-one time with Pop:

We did have a birthday cake and sing "Happy Birthday" to Jesus which was the highlight of the party for me...but it went uncaptured by the camera.
