The Week Before Christmas....

and all through our house
every creature was stirring
and singing and baking
and bowling?

Emma's Preschool Christmas Program
We have been hearing 3 main Christmas songs around our house this month and were excited to see the final performance (with actions). The first song was a capella due to technical problems, but all of their songs were great! It was so funny to see 4 yr old's singing and doing actions at the same time!

"In a Little Stable"
"Wishing on a Star" (from Polar Express!)

Emma's Christmas present from Miss Cindy
Preschool Field trip--Bowling!

I think these ramps are perfect for kids
Love the shoes!
Treat-making Day
I know a lot of people have a "candy-making day" with the women in their families, but since I grew up with all brothers, we didn't have a day like that. I don't even know how to make "candy", so I stick to treats like fudge, Chex mix, and truffles. This year the girls helped with portions of each recipe!
Blending the Oreo's
Licking the marshmallow creme spoons
Parrish family party
The last couple years, Nick's family has drawn names for cousins and brother/sisters and then we have had a party prior to Christmas. This year we ate dinner, performed the Nativity, and exchanged presents. It was so fun!
