Christmastime adventures

Last Thursday night Bryce had a choral concert at school! The kids all did a wonderful job and it was a fun program to watch. They sang many new songs and some old ones too!! They divided the gym into sections based on the 12 days of Christmas. Then each section had to say their part. It ended up reminding me of the cheer "we've got spirit yes we do...we've got spirit how 'bout you". Everyone was yelling their part...it was so funny I had to substitute on Friday and on Monday so that always makes for a crazy day. It rained all day on Saturday so I sewed 3 dresses. The kids spent lots of time reading and were really good. Landon had his cub scout meeting on Sunday evening and received his bobcat badge. This week will be full of activities at their school because of Christmas. Friday is their last day.

We have started another building project. We are making an opening to the garage from our sunroom. Then we will finish the garage room to make another BIG room. Not sure whether we will move the boys out there or make it a playroom. It will be fun and adventurous, I am sure! I have pictures of all the above events and will post as I have time.
