Preschool Christmas Program

Jacob has his preschool Christmas Program this week. They practiced at the church that morning so they were fresh for the show. I wasn't sure how he would do. I was very surprised at how well he did. It took him a couple of songs to warm-up but he was so brave just to go on the risers.

I was also surprised that they didn't do a lot of traditional songs. I was impressed with the songs they knew and the motions to go along with them. Here are some excerpts from the evening.

Snow Day

Dad was still away on his hunting trip when we got about 2 inches of snow. We couldn't just leave it untouched. We bundled up, shoveled, made snow angels, threw snowballs for Jo, and just had a great time.

Boots + Gloves - Pants = Not Quite Ready
Getting ready to head out!

Children's Christmas Party

My company puts on a nice Children's Christmas Party every year. And every year it is the same weekend as opening shotgun season so Dad is not able to join us. The kids are perfect ages this year to enjoy all of the games, prizes, goodies, and Santa...Ok, Jenna did not enjoy Santa. She didn't want anything to do with him. However, as soon as the photographer raised the camera she smiled and said "Cheese!"

Extended Family Weekend

We made our way home for a couple of days after Thanksgiving. It was nice to be home with nothing planned.
