Ward Christmas Party 2009

I am on the activities committee for our ward and this year we decided to do the Polar Express for our ward. I thought it was such a great idea and I think it was really a lot of fun to do. It took a lot of work, but mainly because I brought in on myself, but I love doing Christmas things, so it was totally worth it.

Here is Brielle with Santa. We have been preparing her for weeks telling her that Santa was going to come and she would sit on his lap and not cry and then he would give her a present. Surprisingly she did fabulous all three times she talked to Santa this year! Yea for preparation and for Brielle!!!

Here is Brielle's good friend Molly. I absolutely love this picture. She is delighted to be sitting on Santa's lap.
Here is a picture of some of the snowflakes I made and hung from wall to wall.

Here are our cute table decorations. We had a cute tree in the middle and then candy down the middle!

Here are the tickets I made as invitations to look like the Polar Express tickets! I cut them all out (along with my sister's help) and I hope people enjoyed them. They were fun to do!

We had a cute train coming out of a tunnel. It was a joy trying to keep the kids off of it, but they did fairly well.

Here is our stage set up for when Santa came.

Santa's list of children's names. Our activities chairman is awesome! She wrote them all out! What a cute idea.

More snowflakes.

Here is our envelope to Santa.
