The Kindergarten did their own program on Friday and it was Christian's last:(
They all looked cute and sounded even cuter:) They sang "Rudolph", "Must be Santa", "Up on the house top" and "Follow the Star"
Baylor had her first pre-school program on Wednesday. I wasn't sure what she would do when she saw all the parents watching, but she was quite the little performer. Below you can see her rocking baby Jesus.
Singing 'Twinkle Twinkle' with some verses added about following the star to Bethlehem
After all the songs the kids all sing Jingle Bells as loud as they can to see if Santa can hear them...then he magically appears:) The director of the school tells them that Santa will visit their class and they can talk to him IF they want too. Over all the other kids you hear Baylor say "I want ellella Mom" which is her way of saying Cinderella. It was priceless:)
Each child brought in a gift to exchange. Baylor received a Color Wonder book with Dora in it. My kids love Color Wonder books so her big brother was a little jealous.
Daddy, Mommy, Nana, KayKay and Tex were all their to watch her sing
Baylor was much more interested in looking around at everyone else when I tried to take her picture with Mrs. Julie
Baylor and me with her friend Caroline
land that is...Our group braved the crowds and headed out there Sunday evening. The weather was really nice compared to what had happened two days before. Our family goes to see the lights just about every year, but not everyone in our group does so it was fun showing them around. Something different from years past is the fact that they move the Nativity out front. I'm not sure which I like better, but I'm just glad it's there.
Kim and Kevin had no idea that they would find out the next day that baby Gracie is coming this week!! Kim goes in on Wednesday to have her and we can't wait to see that sweet face.
What better way to spend a snowy day than making sweet things in the kitchen?!?! We make Peanut Butter Fudge for all our friends at Christmas time so this was a good day to get it done. KayKay thought it would be fun to make rice krispies too.
Last Friday was a snow day in Nashville!!! Those don't come @ very often and don't always make things look so pretty. I shot these pictures from my parents front porch. God's beauty is simply breathtaking.
Christian received a lesson in throwing snowballs
The night before my birthday our LG met at Las Palmas for some yummy (though not a bit healthy for you) dinner. We were going to Becca's house afterwards to talk about some Christmas service ideas and plan an outing for all of us to see all the lights at Opryland (will post pics of that event later). ANYWAY...I was surprised as could be when we walked up to her front door and saw streamers and a big Happy Birthday Christy sign. They had all been sneaky and planned a little party for me:) I have been told I'm a hard person to surprise so they all did good. My husband arranged for someone to pick up a cake and I even had a couple presents...like the comfy PJ's I'm currently wearing:) A picture was taken of me blowing out my candles, but I don't have it. It was lots of fun and I thank them all.
