Snow!

No, not real snow, Silly!
We have to make our own snow in beautiful sunny CA!




Check out Elle's snowmen:





And Christmas trees
(you have to look at it right to see them)



And another fancy one!


I don't know how she does it!



Is it just me or does it seems like this is turning into an art blog?

Shoes?

So Elle needs new shoes, right? (because apparently she's going to be 6'1 someday).
I shopped around and found a good deal at JCPenney.  I even paid extra so they would get here sooner because poor Elle has her toes cramped all the time.

Well, when I checked the status, it said that they had been shipped to Las Vegas instead and wouldn't come for a day or so later. (grr)

Yesterday, two packages came.  They were both addressed to Elle.  One said JCPenney on the outside so I knew it was the shoes.  I figured the other package must be from a relative.

So Elle opened the JCPenney one and saw the invoice:





Athletic shoes, black.  Right size, right color, check.


HOWEVER,


When  she pulled out what should have been shoes, she pulled this out instead:






In case you can't tell, that is a package of size 38 DD  lacy white bras.

Yep.

Not shoes.

I had a mental image of a drawing Chris could do of a girl trying to Pollyanna the gift by putting the bras on her feet.
ha ha.  


Luckily, the other unmarked box contained the shoes.  
No invoice though.  I thought it would be great if the shoes had the invoice for the bras, but no.

I guess the store decided to gift us some giant bras as compensation for the delay of the shoes!

The Grinch Who Stole Breakfast

Chris was asked to do the backdrop for our ward Christmas party "The Grinch Who Stole Breakfast."


Pretty epic painting!




He even signed it:


They were doing a little skit so half was the Grinch's cave:


And half was the ward breakfast which the Grinch stole


I didn't see the photo bomber.  
 I managed to see his mom who did mean to photo bomb right before him though! 
She's a funny lady.

Chris got plenty of compliments and everyone was very impressed by his artwork--and by his Christmas card. :)
