Movie Day!
Andrew and Aaron had been counting down
the days until the new Star Wars movie came out
and on Dec. 18th they finally got to see it! The girls
opted to see the new chipmunk movie at the
same time.

Avery's Pre-School Christmas Musical
I had been anxiously awaiting this performance
since Avery started prek! Aaron didn't do this
one when he went there because the music
teacher would alternate schools and he missed
doing it all together. She was so pretty as a
doll for her performance and she took
her part very seriously! It was so cute!

Church Sunday School Christmas play
This was Avery's second year to be is Ms. Cindy's
Sunday School Christmas play that she does
every year with the 3-5 yr olds. Last year
she was an angel and she and Brooklyn
sang together. This year she was a sheep
and Brooklyn was to be the cow but sadly
Brooklyn was sick the day of the performance.
We were so sad they did not get to sing together
this year.

Cookies with Gram
The kids spent the night with Gram and Paw Paw so
we could go to a Christmas party and they had a great
time making turtle cookies.

Aaron's Field Trip and Christmas Lunch
December proved to be a very busy month for
school activities. I attended a field trip with Aaron
to the planetarium and Andrew and I ate lunch with
him for the 2nd grade Christmas lunch. I love
being able to be there for these type of events.

2nd Annual PJ Day at church
Our church held its annual PJ day for the kids
and a few adults! Since Andrew and I teach a
Sunday school class full of 2 yr olds I figured I could
wear my pjs too. And we all match of course!

Christmas Decorating
The kids decorated the tree this year
all by themselves. Daddy and I put a few
at the top since they couldn't reach.
They are very proud of their tree.

Aaron's Skating Celebration
For the last year Aaron has been asking to go skating for
his birthday. We decided to wait until Thanksgiving
break so that Margaret and Meredith could join us on
our skating celebration. The kids had a blast even though
there was A LOT of falling down. We are so
proud of our big 8 year old!

Operation Christmas Child
One of my favorite things about the Christmas season is
the Operation Christmas Child project. The kids have
so much fun picking out the gifts for a boy and girl
their age!

Happy Birthday Aaron!
Our boy turned 8 years old this year! Where has the time
gone? Pop Pop and JuJu surprised Aaron at school during
lunch and brought his gift. We then had his requested dinner
of jambalaya and a birthday cookie after dinner. We didn't
have a number 8 candle so that is why there is a 7 plus an
extra. We bought him a storm trooper helmet to decorate
and he was really excited to make it his own.

School Time Fun
Avery has really been enjoying her first year of school.
The teacher asked me to do some Halloween crafts with
the kids... and as much as I do not enjoy crafting ... I agreed.
We did pumpkin faces and bats. I have been asked
to go again in November and I plan to do turkeys.
The kids had a great time. And Avery loved having me
in her class for a little while.

Fall Fest at Church
Our church held a fall festival on Halloween
day and since it was pouring cats and dogs
outside.. the festival was a great escape.
Gram and Paw Paw helped with the
activities and the kids played games and won
candy. They all look so cute!

No Field Trip for Us
The 2nd grade big field trip is to go to New Orleans to
see a play at the Saenger Theater. Well the cost was
going to be $200 for both of us to go... and that was just
to much for us to spend right before Christmas. BUT
we still had fun because after I got back from Avery's
field trip I checked Aaron and his friend McKenzie out
and we met Jackson and his mom for ice cream. From
this picture you can tell they weren't to disappointed about
not going on the field trip.
