Field Trip to San Juan Bautista

Friday I went on a field trip to the San Juan Bautista Mission with Ashlee's class. They were given a scavenger hunt (a fancy name for homework on a field trip) to be completed while they were there. There were about 50 questions and it took the whole time to get it done. We had like 1 min left to spare.

Afterschool Friday, Ashlee's friend Alyssa and Mikayla's friend Allison came home with us. Friday night we went to the Christmas Parade in Turlock. It's a pretty large parade. Thousands of people line the streets of Downtown Turlock. We got there and hour and 15 minutes before it started just to get a spot. The entire parade lasted and hour and half. They had arts and crafts for the kids to do before the parade started. The girls are making place mats and ornaments.

After the parade we headed back to the school to set-up and decorate for the Santa Breakfast Saturday morning. We were home and in bed around 11:30. Saturday morning we were up at 5 am and back at the school for the Santa Breakfast. John has been re-named the EB for the egg beater. We went through 3 cases of eggs plus some more. John beated and cooked eggs for 3 hours. I mixed lots of pancake batter and washed lots of dishes. We had a great turn out and the event was a success. Saturday afternoon we went and saw the movie Tangled for my niece Hailee's birthday. It was a very cute movie. Saturday night we had our ward Christmas party. We are still on the activities committee, so we had to set-up, prepare, clean-up etc for it.


Sunday we spent the day at home. We never got out of our pajamas. We were beat. We needed to rest up for the week ahead.
