Christmas Musical at the Preschool

WE LOVE SNOW

I realize this may not look like much to our friends and family that see real snow all winter long but our kids were thrilled! As we drove out of the driveway to take Addie to school, the girls were chanting in the back seat "We love snow". And Lysie couldn't wait to get home and play with it but I was trying to figure out how she planned on get on the roof to do that. For several weeks after that she would periodically mention how were going to go the snow. Looks like it's not going to happen this year but maybe we can plan a long weekend next year to play in the snow. I've been told the closest place to get to some snow from here is New Mexico. We'll have to check it out.

The Nutcracker Suite

It's now become sort of a tradition to take our children to see the nutcracker suite around Christmas. We get all dressed up, well sort of, eat some place fancy, and we take turns to see who can fall asleep the fastest during the first act while our children wiggle all over the place. It honestly is a lot of fun but we might make it any every other year tradition so they can get old enough to appreciate it. And just for the record, the second act is way more entertaining than the first.



The mice come out during intermission and dance outside for the children to see.
