A post on Christmas Programs, Parties and Sundays.

What a busy busy week we have had. I am sitting here on Sunday afternoon wondering if I will be able to get my Baptist nap in today. I sure do hope so!!

We started last Sunday night with our church Christmas program.


Brother was 1 of the 3 wise men. He of course did a fabulous job.

I didn't get a picture of it, But I think Eli and the other little nursery kids stole the show. They were dressed in sheep and donkey costumes ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!


Dada was a caroler. As you probably know, Dada loves to sing, so the part fit her wonderfully.

At 1 point though, the kids were singing a very unsung verse of a song ( can't remember which one now) and they all stopped until the chorus b/c they forgot the words to the song. It was cue and it made me giggle.


Janelle and Joy came to watch the play. I was thankful they came!!



The Wolf's also came to watch Dada and Brother. They were able to come over afterwords for pizza. It was nice to visit with them and to let the kids play!!

Thursday night we had a school staff Christmas party. I cooked the meat for that party. I spent Thursday cooking about 15 pounds of Roast Beef and about 60 pieces of chicken. It turned out very good. I'm glad that I did it.

Friday at school the kids had a school wide Christmas party. The school rented these big huge blow up things and the kids were able to have such a fun time.

Lori and our some of the girls on our volleyball team came and got me and MADE me jump in 1 of the blowup things. It was a lot of fun and I am glad that they MADE me do it!!!


The kids were so excited for this day. Some of Brother's classmates.



I think that Dada like the jumpy 1 the best!! She was so looking forward to this day!!

Friday Night we had a Big S family Christmas at church. I was upset b/c I forgot my camera!!

Saturday Night, we had our annual Adult Christmas Party at church. I just wasn't in the mood to take my camera out. :0

Today at church, I took some random pictures. :)






Betsy and I also played a duet today. We played Oh Holy Night. I have been very nervous about this for the past 2 weeks. It was a harder arrangement and I didn't know how it would go.



But I think that it turned out well. I am thankful that it is over!! :)
