Early Christmas with Tasha and Zane

Unfortunately Tasha and Zane are not able to join us for Christmas this year, so we decided to celebrate early when they arrived for a visit this week.  We had a short but fantastic visit.

The fun started when Tasha joined our visiting teaching group at Old Grist Mill.  It was so fun.  I just love our monthly visits with.  Having Tasha join was just perfect!

We played tons of games and laughed and laughed.  We had a wonderful dinner with Zane's family and then we came back and opened some presents (PJ's of course).




Several months ago we all got on the Harry Potter website and were sorted into our various "houses" by the "sorting hat".  Shandra and Zane were Slytherines, Kim and Kalel were Griffindorfs, and Tasha and I were Hufflepuffs.  Tasha thought that was so fun that she knit us all scarves that corresponded with our various houses.  There are beautiful!  I'm sure that she spent hundreds of hours making them for us!


Kalel got us all funny teeth!  Don't we look marvelous?


One of the funnest (and most stupid) activities we did was to have make-up makeovers - however the person doing the makeup was blindfolded!  It was hilarious!  We watched several videos on youtube showing the art of blindfolded make-up application, and then we were ready to give it a go.

My goodness - that activity was great for lots of laughter!  

It felt so good having Tasha and Zane here!  I miss them so much and am so sad that we only get to see them a few times a year, but I'm so very proud of the good things they are doing with their lives in San Diego.  We will miss them on Christmas.
