Christmas Eve

Colin got new Nike athletic shoes from his uncle and aunt
Ben liked the board books we gave him.

Ady got a personalized princess magnet board, Owen a personalized laundry basket hoop with his name on the backboard. These were all from her uncle and aunt.
Kali and Gabe came over early Christmas Eve and visited. They didn't have any children since their kids spent Christmas with the other parent. The cloth bag on the table is a music carrier that is reversible. My adult student had one made by her daughter. She commissioned her daughter to make one for me! I was thrilled.
After the story of the nativity with unbreakable figures, Ady continued to play with the figures.
Our traditional sing a long of carols went well and everyone participated. We had special performances by Terrin, singing "The Twelve Days of Christmas." I still remember when Bev, I think drew on brown butcher paper alll the pictures of twelve days of Christmas. I thought it was so cool. Camron surprised us all, volunteering to do a solo of "Have a Holly Jolly Christmas." We all thought he was a monotone, but he proved us wrong by staying on key.
