In the holiday spirit!

This entire past week has been all about Christmas around here.  I love it!!

The third graders put on a lovely Christmas musical on Tuesday evening.

Here they are singing "Winter in America" with James helping out up front…

And a few more…

James, Henry, and Peter exchanged Christmas gifts with Nicolas and Gabby yesterday…

Where's Pete? 

There he is.

These kids are a funny bunch!

Chris and I also decided to have a small "Christmas party" at home on Wednesday evening, just the 5 of us, since we'll be traveling home to MD tomorrow.  Someone may have bought a few larger items that someone else was annoyed concerned about packing in the car…

OKAY, IT WAS A MINI TRAMPOLINE AND GO-KART!!!!!

haha… you get the idea.

The boys also bought each of their brothers one small gift.  They were so excited to open each others presents! 

 But the HIT of the gift exchange was none other than….

The Rubber Band Loom!

SO excited!

We've already made about 10 bracelets!  James is excited to exchange and share them at school today.  Speaking of which, Henry and James have their big Christmas party today.  Hope to share a few pictures from that before we leave tomorrow.  

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
