School Parties

We had such a busy last couple weeks of school, I'll break it down for you...


Last Wednesday evening- Christmas Performance

Grace is in the lime green dress, last child on the right of the bottom row.

Wednesday - Christmas Around the World at Sacred Heart

Every classroom represented a country. The kids toured each room and learned about the Christmas traditions of its country. Grace's room was France. We did a live nativity, a presentation on French traditions, and each child made a yule log (a swiss roll with chocolate icing and candy decorations!)

Grace was Mary in the living nativity!

Grace telling Meredith about France while she makes her yule log.

Her classmates are so sweet!! They are always like this :)

Getting her passport stamped to get on the Polar Express!! This room was America. It showed the customs we stole from other countries mostly... and a few that are our own ;)

Germany!

Mexico, making a pinata!

Sweden, this one was fabulous!!

We are so blessed to have such an awesome school!! It was such a cool day!!

Thursday- Marion's Christmas Party at Mom's Day Out

It was Marion's first school party!

Daddy even came to make it super special!

Marion loves her Mom's Day Out teachers. She cried when the party was over because she didn't want to leave them! That didn't make me feel too loved ;(

Friday- Grace's School Party

I am Grace's homeroom mom, so I put some work into this party... it went well!

Such sweet kids :)

They decorated Christmas tree cookies for dessert... they loved it!
