Elves and singers

Last night was the annual Cathedral House holiday program.  And it was, as always, adorable.  This year it was a "sci-fi" -- the Xmas files.  Will and Helen's class, Toddler I, were the "little green men" that turned out to be Santa's elves.  Take a look at them in costume.  I told you:  Adorable!





Helen told us that she "danced like this, and I put my arms up and down, up and down, and I hammered."  She also said that she saw Daddy and said, "cheese" (because Daddy had the camera).  They did great - no crying, and knew generally what they were supposed to be doing.  All of the other classes were adorable too, but I swear the elves were the cutest.

This morning was the Travis kindergarten holiday program.  The boys, feeling older and very much superior, informed Will and Helen that they would be singing "big kid songs."  We didn't see as much of it, because the boys really wanted Will and Helen to watch -- which meant we brought them and spent much of the time taking them to the bathroom, trying to get them quiet, and corralling them generally.  But we saw enough to know that they did a great job.

After the kindergarten holiday program were the kindergarten holiday parties, and after those were the kindergarten holiday lunches.  So I spent a lot of time going back and forth from one class to another, finishing at around noon, just in time to pick them up again at 1pm for early dismissal.  

Christmas break has officially started for Charlie and Joseph, and boy are they excited!
