December 2008

We had some great pictures from some holiday events and we thought we would share(by we I mean me!) Mommy and Caroline are done with school! Hooray! Chase has two more days. We had a great neighborhood event and the kids got to ride on a "sleighride" and see Santa and Mrs. Claus. Mommy was in charge of the event, so it wasn't as much fun for her. It was also Allen's birthday this week and we celebrated it at "Santa's Gingerbread Workshop." The kids had a great time and Chase even sat on Santa's lap! For all of you that know about Chase and Santa this was a monumentous event. He has not even gotten close to him since he was a baby and he couldn't run away. Last year if you recall we had pictures of him hiding under the table when Santa arrived. Tonight after bedtime stories he called me back in and asked of there really was a "good" and a "bad list." "There sure is Chase." I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. We will share more Christmas day photos later:)

Chase's Thanksgiving Pow Wow

I decided I would finally upload this before I started uploading Christmas pictures!! Chase's school puts on a fabulous kindergarten Pow Wow each year at Thanksgiving. His tribe was the Sioux. They had a great day learning about Native Americans and participating in authentic activities. Mommy was very proud watching Chase particpate in this very special event.
