We may have to tie Grace to her bed to keep her in it tonight. She has had three celebrations in the last 6 hours!! I had the opportunity to go to school this afternoon for her class celebration and spend some time with all the cute kids in the class. I manned the snowman memory game station. Let me tell you, 5 & 6 years olds have a WAY better memory than this old lady. The classroom parents put together some really great activities for the kids and it was good to be in the classroom. I was reminded today just how hard of a job teachers have and just how blessed I am to have my child at Easley with Mrs. Farr and Mrs. Harriss. God has placed them in the perfect jobs and they are fabulous at it!
Enjoying her snack.

So, after school she decided she did not want to go home with mommy and instead went to afterschool so she could participate in the Christmas party there too. When I picked her up at afterschool she tells me on the way home all the "treats" she had - three handfuls of cheese puffs, 3 cookies and ice cream. Normally I would freak that they gave her such junk, but it's a special time of year, so I let it go.
Tonight we went to church for a short kids singing program and a birthday party for Jesus. It was cute to see the kiddos sing and see Santa. Fortunately I was able to keep Grace away from more sugar at this celebration.
Huntley might not be able to sing with the big
kids, but he can handle the drums.
Listening to the Christmas story
Talking to Santa and hopefully not adding anything to her wish list!!
An attempt to get Huntley on Santa's lap.
Why is it that Santa is so scary to kids?
These two make it all matter!
