random stuff we did before Christmas...(i'm running a little behind on the blog posts)

van and freddy playing basketball at the church while we waited our turn for tithing settlement
jasmine's beautiful artwork.
(striking resemblance wouldn't ya say?)
van helping me pick out some Christmas presents at the book store
all you can eat at CiCi's pizza...
followed by a shooting match at the arcadesitting on santa's lap at the ward Christmas party (jasmine was gently persuaded to be in the picture...she thinks she's too old for this stuff)
this is the first year that van was brave enough to sit on santa's lap- but he was determined. you could tell he was a little nervous...but he walked right up and told him exactly what he wanted. all he wanted was a telescope (check), and a speedracer (dang, this is the first i've heard of a speedracer...i guess i'll be making another trip to toys-r-us to pick one up. thanks for the tip santa:)the picture's a little blurry, but i wanted to show how tall jasmine's getting... holy crap, she's almost as tall as me!
