We’ve had such warm weather this December that it’s hard to believe Christmas is almost here! With the kids in school until yesterday and me working until the 21st, it hasn’t felt all that Christmassy. BUT, over the past few days, it’s started to look and feel a lot more like Christmas!
Here are some pictures/videos:
Eric’s school spirit week, where he had to "make a new beard for Santa."
An early gift to Alaina from Ben—a new hamster! Alaina named him Ushi.
Cuddles with Pumpkin by the Christmas tree (when she isn’t climbing it!) We didn't get a real tree this year for obvious reasons (I mean you, PUMPKIN).
Our church Christmas party with Santa
The School Christmas concert, where Janae's art class displayed "Santa through the Ages."
I've put in some links to clips from the choir songs below. Alaina also played in the jazz band (I was sitting in a spot where I couldn't see her at all, but she had her trombone all lit up with Christmas lights!) and accompanied the choir on the cello for one song.
Christmas Waltz (Janae in the back row, Alaina in the front)
No Room (Watch/listen for Janae in the back row, Alaina in the front)
Muppet Christmas Carol Medley (Janae on the far left)
Holiday ice cream (Candy Cane Land, Turtle, White Chocolate Cranberry....)
Yesterday we made turtles and Oreo truffles, and there has been lots of dipped gingerbread and hot chocolate…. Tonight we even watched White Christmas.
Finally, it’s staring to feel like Christmas—just in time for Christmas Eve!
