Kindergarten Christmas Program




On Tuesday Kaitlyn was in her first Christmas Program. She was very nervous about everyone watching however she did a wonderful job with her class. The kids all had Christmas presents that they made for the parents after the program. They were tiny handprints that were painted . Very cool. I wanted to wait to open the present at Christmas however she was so excited I opened it up right there.

Tree Decorating




After dinner on Sunday the kids and I decorated the tree. The kids have been asking for weeks when Christmas is and are already searching the house for their presents. Grant is my little Christmas boy. Everything about Christmas is extra exciting to him. Lights, ornaments, everything. It was so fun to watch him get the christmas boxes out. We are taking the kids on the Northwest Santa Train on Saturday. It is a total surprise for them. Should be a great time!

The 2007 Christmas Tree hunt!
















Last weekend we went up in the hills to get a tree. A few friends joined us as well as my parents who rode up with us in the truck. My Dad's foot is still healing from surgery so he was marooned in the truck and could not walk around. He drove while we got out to look in he meadows. We had a great time trudging through the snow and driving around looking for the trees. Kasey found a perfect one. We also got to see some deer on the way up. The snow was quite deep in some places. Nothing better than the smell of the Christmas tree in the house.

The alphabet children


My kiddos found some of my teaching stuff . They are alphabet strips to put on the kid's desks. They found a whole roll and had the best time. Silly little ones....
