Of course we had a great time this month celebrating the birth of baby Jesus and all of the fun Christmas activities! The kids had a blast and got some good stuff for Christmas too!
 |
| Here is Sibley and Wyatt going to see Santa at the mall. This is another picture of Wyatt thinking he needed to pose like Sibley so here he is trying to hold out his pants like Sibley is doing with her dress! He's pretty funny! |
 |
| Sibley's name was drawn at school to play the part of Mary in the school play! She was SOOO excited and had a HUGE smile during the entire play! After the play everyone kept telling me that she was the happiest Mary they have ever seen! |
 |
| Here is Wyatt in the play. He was supposed to be a sheep but refused to wear the sheep ears so he was just Wyatt, I guess! |
 |
| "Joseph and Mary" after the play |
 |
| Wyatt and "Mary" |
 |
| The best part - getting to eat baby Jesus' birthday cake! |
 |
| Singing Christmas songs |
 |
| Here is Sibley being an angel in the play on the second day. They have the play 2 times. Once for Monday, Wednesday, Friday kids then again for the Tuesday, Thursday kids. Since the pre-k kids go everyday, they are in the play twice and pick a different name to play the part of Mary and Joseph on the second day. So here she is as an angel with the other girls in her class. Still happy as can be! |
 |
| Singing away! |
 |
| Here is the house on Christmas morning before Sibley and Wyatt woke up! They both got their new beds from Santa. Sibley wanted a zebra bed and Wyatt wanted a giraffe bed. More pictures to come of that once they are assembled. Sibley also got Barbie and Ken in a Barbie Jeep, a Snow White doll, little animals and people that can be used in her doll house, Hungry, Hungry Hippo and all kinds of stuff in her stocking like press on nails, a princess wand, bubble gum, hello kitty pencils and more! Wyatt got a new train for his Thomas the Train set, a sheriff's dress up set with a pistol, rifle and bandanna, the game Operation, little animals and people to play with in his new heros house and a stocking full of stuff like gum, spiderman pencils and notepad, magnifying glass, watercolors and more! They also got other fun gifts from everyone in the family like the movies Mary Poppins, Brave, and Tangled, a bowling set, a ceramic tea set, a new doll house, an everyday heros house (police and fire house), lots of Barbies, Buzz Lightyear, a knight and Cinderella dress up clothes, little knex toys, leapfrog book, a little fisher price tractor and coloring books. That should last them for a while!!! |
