Cheers.....to Christmas Break.....

First day of Christmas break.....coffee, hot chocolate and games!!!!.......And still in pj's (for the entire day, actually!!!)


Come on ring them bells....

Once the kids get in 6th grade they learn the bells and start to play them at school masses.  Peyton had her debut and I snuck a couple pictures, even though they are tucked behind a half wall, I still managed.  They actually do a really good job and sound very good!!

She's the one tucked back, there with the white headband on.



Maddie's Advent Program

The kindergartners do their own little program so that they don't have to sit through the big one....kind of nice.  BUT, next year, they will have to sit through the entire program.  They sang and chanted for about 30 minutes and then had a donut reception.  It was cute and A LOT for their little brains to remember, but they did and they did a good job!!  Maddie LOVED it, smiled the entire time and made sure I was watching the entire time too!!






Maddie, Part Monkey

Always hanging, climbing, flipping....

Knights Christmas Gift Exchange

Peyton's Knights basketball team had their little team gift exchange.  Such good friends and nice girls on this team!!!  Peyton loves her Knights teammates!!  Great girls, great families, great coach!


Bathroom remodel COMPLETE!!!!

We spend 6 weeks without a master bathroom, but more impressive, all five of us sharing ONE shower.  We made it and it was worth the wait.  Jose did a lovely job on our bathroom and we are happy, happy that it is finished.  The first BATH was great!!!




Christmas Concert Time

Let the good times roll.......
Jack performed on the lovely recorder at the school concert.  Peyton does not "perform" anymore unless she takes a middle school music elective, which she did not have this semester.  Kindergarten has their own Christmas performance on a different day, so she will join the big school one next year.

The selfie was a picture Mike and I took in the middle of the concert to show my friend that had a "sick" kid how much fun they were missing!!!!!


Jack, playing his little heart out.....

Giving me the smirk and the "ok" once he was finished.....he does enjoy to perform.

Peyton and her friends stood on the fire escape steps and watched and giggled as their friends that were in the music elective performed.
