The Christmas Concert

Merry Christmas from our family to yours. It's quite busy this time of year between the holiday activities and extra shoveling and school and activities. To top it all off, the kids also had their Winter Concert.


The kids are now in separate groups for music - at least until next year. I think it's funny that this boy was supposed to be sharing music with girlchild. But he obviously wasn't. It was almost as if he's still in that "ewwwwwww, girls!" stage.


Boychild and his friend were able to provide the requisite drum accompaniment for "The Little Drummer Boy". He was so proud of himself. And we were just as proud.

The holiday letters are still coming. What??!!!?? You expected me to do them myself? We did get them all printed, but the kids wanted to help so I held off for them. And then we had winter weather that prevented travel that weekend. And... you don't think I'm out of excuses yet do you? Anyway, they really are still coming - before the end of the year even. Assuming we don't get all of the snow that is expected to be dumped on us again. I'm officially tired of snow.
