December is Over?

Typical December, it went by so quickly I can't even remember what happened!

KK came for a quick pre-Christmas visit and got to help Delaney in her classroom.

 Just another night on the town with Sarah...

 The main event in early December was Merediths Nutcracker performance.  She did a wonderful job!  Boise Dance Alliance does a Nutcracker 'except', Meredith was a flower in waltz of the flowers. She REALLY loves ballet and it's so fun to watch her on stage.  

 Bad picture but the Richins came to watch.  What wonderful friends!

 And then there were these two who were equally as excited.  Or not.

 Too tired at the end of the day to take a good picture.

 Love this one!

 KK was in town so the ladies had to put their Norwegian garb on.

 A favorite tradition.  Mall Santa followed by dinner at Chicago Connection.  

 Roosevelt Christmas program 2015 will go down in history as the quickest show ever.  34 minutes!  

It was fun to see Delaney and Quinn together.

 Not shy.

 Kindergartners.  Look at all those boys.

 Special bell performance by Grady, James, Belen, Delaney and Scarlett

 Top of Delaney wish list.  A wrist brace.  Seriously.  And a wheelchair for her American Girl doll.

 4th grade choir performance!

 When I signed up as room parent for the 4th grade I wasn't aware of the 'formal' Christmas dinner.  Oh Lordy, this one took years off my life but it turned out lovely.

 Super Server Parents

 Slightly too much candy down in the Kindergarten room.

 Quinn and John waiting for the 4th graders to finish already.

 Ahhhh, Christmas break!  It dumped in McCall in December, let's hope it's not a fluke.

 Drove to Spokane for Christmas.  Lots of snow there too!

 Waiting for the CDA boat ride to see Santa.

 Quinn was SO HAPPY she got called on the nice list.  I honestly think she was worried.

Aunt Stacy had fun too!

 Christmas Even Mass

 Front row rules!

 Really mad that I wouldn't let them wake Quinn up on Christmas morning. 

 The one and ONLY thing Quinn asked for, a giant jawbreaker.  

You would have thought she got a puppy or a pony.  

And another fail at taking pictures at Christmas time.  I swear I had more!
