All Stars!

 Look who made All Stars!!!  She was so excited!  And Jeremy was excited, because he did not have to coach.  He needed a break after his crazy season.  Coach Shannon was her coach and Cali had so much fun playing with her buddies.  They tied both games ( 0 - 0 ).  
 Here's the "Candy Canes" during one of their huddles...

 Those are Cali's hands in the air:
My Angel loves Soccer!

Tuh-Daw!!!



Last Monday, for FHE, we got the tree looking all pretty.  And, as is tradition, Cali got to put the Angel on top!  Isn't she a beaut?

The Perfect Tree

Today we loaded up the car and headed to the hills...El Cajon...to the Family Christmas Tree Farm to find this year's perfect Wilson Family Christmas Tree.
on the hunt...
 We wandered through the rows and rows of trees trying to find just the right one...
nope...not this one...
 We found it!!!!-

 Time to cut it down...oldest to youngest:



 Mommy's and daddy's turn...

 And as is tradition, the kids hauled it to the front-
 And we got our free baby tree - Treebeard Jr.!
 So happy and loving this tradition...

It's Christmas Party Time...Chumps!

MC and his beautiful sweater vest
Last night was the Vista 10th Ward Christmas Party and it was SO MUCH FUN!  Sister Robertson was in charge and put on an awesome dinner and program.  There was a yummy turkey dinner and dessert table.  Then my hubby took over as the "MC' of the evening and we enjoyed some entertaining acts from the ward members.

friends - Cali, Mackenna & Celia
 The Bishopric put together a hilarious skit:
Bro Riddle, Bishop Frame & Bro McDaniel
 And even the kids enjoyed the festivities:




 And Santa came too!
 Merry Christmas!

Youth Temple Night

This week we had my first Youth Temple Baptism!  I was so excited to accompany the YM & YW to the temple for this special night.  Jeremy and I both got to go, while my dad volunteered to babysit.  I wanted to be able to see Jeremy and Gav together.  We had a great turn out....and I think that was due to the In n Out dinner before and our tour of the lights after.  I'm really lovin' all these people:

Time for Christmas!

Saturday was December 1st!  It was also quarantine day for our family, because Luke & Brody had the stomach flu.  So we blasted the Christmas music for the first time this year, and broke out the decorations and made the house Merry!  Nobody got sick and we had a wonderful day.  That night, we read our first book of Christmas:
 The kids also went through all our Christmas movies and assigned one to watch each day!  It feels so good to have Christmas in the house again!  Sunday, we broke out the kids's tree and they decorated it all up-





 Luke was so excited to put his angel on top-

 All Done!


While eating dinner, we propped up my ipad on the table and watched the First Presidency Christmas Devotional.  I loved the music and the messages that were shared.  I hope to be able to really enjoy this season and enjoy the Spirit that surrounds us.

Love these guys!

So happy for Christmas time!
