Christmas Cheer: Day 1






I have so many pictures from the 3 days the Christmas Cheer group was here, i am going to have to break it down day by day:) 

Day 1: 
We focused on shopping around town for all the things we would need. Before the group had come, we asked each home if they had a tree, ornaments, and/or decorations for their house. We made a shopping list based off the things they didn't have and the things we thought they should have for Christmas:) 

We went to Wal-Mart and Mega for all the shopping goods. Found most of everything at Wal-Mart though. 

So, apparently here in Mazatlan if you don't buy your Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving it is all gone. And they don't restock their stores for Christmas. They just sell everything. The only place that still even had Christmas lights was Wal-Mart. And to top it off half of them didn't work. We were sure to test them in the store before we bought them and left. 

Then we came back to the team house and started baking away! Dana had pre- made all of the sugar cookie dough. She made enough for 200 cookies. They baked away and continued baking that night and every morning the group was here:) 

As Kelly is displaying, we really liked the sugar cookies they made!
