Preschool Christmas Program

Each year, our preschool does a Christmas program.  It is probably one of my favorite things we do in December.  There is nothing more precious then seeing children sing their little hearts out on stage.  Nora and Lila were SO excited and had been practicing for weeks.  They both did such a great job!  This was Nora's last year and her class did the hand bells.    We were super proud of both of them!!  

Disney On Ice

Clara is in Brownies and we were offered a great price on Disney on Ice tickets!  The show was a 7 pm on a Friday, so I jumped at the chance and decided to get tickets.  Clara's BFF from school is also in Brownies, so we thought it would be a great girls night out!  We had dinner at Chili's and rode the train.  All was fine until about half way through the show, Lila fell asleep.  Then on the train ride home Nora fell asleep and my friend's four year old also fell asleep...two mommies, three sleeping kids...I just kept thinking we were never going to make it off the train.  Luckily, Lila woke just enough to walk to the car.  It was fun, just a late night! Maybe I should catch the matinee next time!

My only pic...I am getting so bad a remembering to take them!!

Little Ballerinas!

Nora and Lila performed in a Progress Dance Performance at their dance classes this month!  I LOVE the moms who I am there with, one hour for Lila and then I am there another hour with Nora and in both groups the moms are just wonderful!  We are all on Pinterest so we spent a few weeks making shirts and tutus for the girls so they would coordinate.  They all came out so darn cute!!  The girls did such a good job dancing!  Love...

 

Choddle and Charidy

As named and spelled by the girls, we now have two elfs, a boy and a girl!  The girls are loving them and they race all around the house looking for them each morning!  Here are a few of the scenarios we have found them in! 

 

Oh Christmas Tree!

We love the weekend after Thanksgiving for putting up the trees!  Each girl loves to do the one in her room and then we all help decorate the big tree.  I am hunting for new decor right now.  I am the person who buys a bunch of stuff, takes it home, picks what I like, then returns it.  Pics to come if I ever get it all done!  

She is taller then her tree...my how she has grown!!

November What???

We are having an unseasonable warm winter so far.  The girls even decided to play outside with water.  Just hoping we get some snow soon, otherwise it will be a campfire and lake free camping season! 

Thanksgiving

Second Annual Thanksgiving at the Lynches!  20 adults, 6 kids!  I love hosting...turkey and deviled eggs (which you can buy hard-boiled eggs already peeled at Costco) and I was done!  I even worked out in the morning!   Super fun!  

The family thankful tree.  Everyone was asked to write something they were thankful for!  

The whole crew!
