Busy week!!

This has been a busy Christmas celebrating week! We began the week by visiting Botanical Gardens with my parents and sisters on Monday evening. It was COLD unlike last year, so no open windows for us. It actually snowed all day Sunday, Monday, part of the day on Tuesday, and school was canceled on Wednesday due to "icy" conditions. CRAZY Alabama weather!! We sure hope for some accumulation this year but so far just flurries.

Like last year Miller LOVED the lights, or maybe it was the fact that he got to set in Luke's lap and not in his car seat? Either way we had a great time.

Tuesday we went and had Miller's picture made with Santa. Unlike the previous 2 years. Miller did not cry and actually visited with Santa. I was VERY relieved to not have to have my picture made with Santa again this year.

Wednesday evening Miller's Wee Praise class wrapped up the year with a Christmas Program. His entire class just stood there. Only one child had a complete come apart and I was just glad it wasn't Miller.

Thursday, Miller and I made gifts for his teachers. I appliqued some cute dish towels and made some homemade thin mints. I stole the idea from a blog I stalk from time to time (don't judge....we ALL do it!!). They were SUPER yummy and easy!

Friday, Miller's class wrapped up the busy week with a class party. They enjoyed pizza and cupcakes and then we headed down to the music room so the parents could see what the kids do each week. Miller usually participates more but he was very shy and barely participated. Again, at least he did not have a melt down.
