Duets and Trios

 

 Janae and Nathan actually played in a quartet (just got the picture of them.) They have all been working very hard this season. It has seemed a little much having extra practices with their partners, but they have really enjoyed working with their friends. They have also learned some great listening, counting, and cohesive skills that only come from working in a group.

 

Grandpa is always so good to come and support us.

Santa

 

We went to the Festival of Trees where Jared saw the REAL Santa. "Mom, he has glasses. That makes him the REAL Santa." The magic of Christmas with a preschooler.

We enjoyed seeing all the pretty trees. We got to see Janae and Nathan dance together with their new costumes. Julene was a disapointed that she wasn't dancing too.(She gets to perform next week.) She asked if she could at least wear her costume, but then she couldn't have any treats.

 

The boys liked the giant nutcrackers. They searched in vain for a Hobbit themed tree, but settled for two Hobbit gingerbread houses. The little boys like the lego and cars themed trees, and were told many times not to touch.

warm week

 

Such warm days must be spent at the park. We also finished raking all our leaves (except for the few still on the trees.) And with some constant request the outside Christmas lights went on the the bushes outside.
