School Christmas Program

Well it sure was a lot different this year than last year.  We had to move it into the church because not everyone would fit in the room we were in last year.  The growth there never ceases to amaze me.
 
Here is little missy before the program.
 



We found our seats and were waiting


I did have to snap a picture of how many people there were!!  AMAZING.  They're going to have to issue tickets next year LOL

 



Mikayla's class did a GREAT job!!  They really harmonized very well.






Such a pretty young lady she is becoming!!!

Here a snippet of one of their songs  --->  click here


We saw Santa!!!

The news that is almost as big as that is that Rolo our beloved elf came....
 
 
 
Mikayla is very on the fence this year about what she really thinks about Santa.... A girl at school sort of spilled the beans which seriously annoys me to no end...gggrrrr.
 
But I did stump her that when we saw Mr. & Mrs. Clause sitting there, she said "mom that's not the real Santa".... I said "I know"....she said "oh, that is NOT what I thought you were going to say".....
 
There have been a LOT of conversations about this.... and what is real and what isn't.....  my answer to it all "We have the magic of Christmas in our house"....
 
 
 
I would love to know what they said to her in the picture below
 
 
 
 
 
 
We brought our neighbor friend with us.   They had a great time!
 
 
They had snow in the park....well if you want to call it that, it was wet, cold and melting.... nothing like a good snow ball fight in flip flops LOL!
 
 
 
In the picture below, you can see the snow ball about to blast him in the head....
 
 
HA!!  Christmas in Texas... you just never know what you're going to get.  The current forecast is calling for nearly 82 degrees.

Thanksgiving fun.

Whew!!  I got so far behind in my posts.... there should be a bunch of them coming up before I get even  more behind!  :)
 
We had a really GREAT Thanksgiving this year.  My most thankful thought is that we are all back to celebrate together again.
 
Here was the bird....I guess he wasn't so thankful....
 

The brothers getting ready to carve.


My SIL provided giant gingerbread people for the kids to decorate and eat.




 
then boys being boys...the massacre happened...poor thing

 
I was able to get some cute cousin pictures.
 







 
I hope you all had a GREAT Thanksgiving!!!
