Family Fun Night

Our local small town put on a fun family night for everyone.  Free chili and cinnamon rolls, and games for the kids and PRIZES!  Ash and Ella volunteered to take the kids.  They invited me too.........but an empty quiet house was a little too tempting.  So I don't know a lot about these pictures, but from what I gathered, you played games at all the stations, and got an X on your name tag at each game.  At the end if your tag was filled up, you got a prize........  I think all the kids got a prize regardless, but it kept them involved longer. 

Signing up....or in?

Iley's teacher has been spotted!

 Oh, I forgot!  They also had Horse and Wagon rides.  Iley LOVED this.  They finally had to make her stop because everyone was so cold!  Wren liked that she could hear the bells on the horses' harness.

 I would say most of the town turned out for it!

Someone may have had a slight melt down at this point when her equipment got tangled in her name tag :( 

Ella..........you look like you are starting to get a headache from the noise and chaos!

 And last.......but NOT least.........trust me.......NOT least........they got a PRIZE!!!  They picked them out.

Thanks Ash and Ella!  The down side to them taking my kids for the evening........they have informed me NOT to expect any offspring from them for a LOOOONG time.

Christmas Program

We weren't sure Iley was going to be able to go.  She wasn't feeling well at all on Sunday, and Monday morning seemed iffy.....but she had perked up by lunch time so I went ahead and sent her to school after lunch........dosed on tylenol.  She came home from school a little droopy, but excited about going to the program.  Here is the 4 of them ready to go.

I was so aggravated!!!  I videoed the girls' whole program....but it's so blurry you can't even tell who is who :(  So there are no pictures of their class.  Makes me so sad......Grrrr!

This is 1st grade, Han's class.

 1st again.

 2nd grade is Grace's class.

 4th grade....Evie's class....with the dreaded recorders!  They actually sounded better than most :)

And 6th grade is Shermans.  He's on the back row in the pink tie.

 

 

Sherm was NOT impressed that they had to do "hand motions" with their songs in 6th grade!  He thinks they are WAY too old for such baby stuff.  They did look kind of old for it. But they did a good job anyway.

The rest of the pictures are just of us sitting in the crowd, watching Harrison's program.

This is the 7th and 8th grade, and the high school choir.

  

Wren update.......I was brushing her hair this morning, and she said "ow ow ow"  totally no misunderstanding that :)
