Star Student Breakfast

Aaron was chosen as Star Student in his
class for the month of December. It was
extra special this year because his best friend
Jackson and Cousin Elizabeth were also
chosen in their classes. It was great to be
able to celebrate the morning with both of
them.

Preschool Christmas Pageant

This will be Avery and Brooklyn's last year
to participate in the preschool play. This
year Avery was so hoping to be picked to
play Mary and she got the part! She sang
a solo- "Away in a Manager" in front of the
large parent crowd and even when the music
cut out at the end she finished strong. We are
so proud of her!

R&L Carrier Bowl

It was Scout night at the R&L Carrier Bowl
at the Superdome this weekend. The boys
were able to get into the game for free and
stand on the field during the national anthem.
They were so excited to participate and we
stayed for some of the game between
ULL and Southern Miss.

Not a creature was stirring... not even a RAT!

We had SEVERAL unwelcome vistors
this December... in the form of RATS!
They were in our van and chewed up the
carseats, my makeup bag, and left poop
all over the place! I was so disgusted!
For days we set traps with hot dogs and
peanut butter but caught nothing... finally
we tried dog food and that did the trick!
We caught 3 .... ewwww!!! Hoping we
got them all!

3rd Grade Christmas Musical

Aaron's school put on a 3rd grade Christmas
musical last week. He was front and center
in the choir. They did a great job!

She chose pearls for her first set of earrings.

Mommy/Daughter Craft Night

Our church hosted a mommy/daughter craft night on
Friday night. We had so much fun spending time together
with each other and our cousins. Avery kept saying the
whole night how much fun she was having.
