Mer had a 6th grade picnic today where everyone brought in foods from around the world to sample. Mer made Greek Kourambiedes. Today they announced the results of last month's Jog-a-thon. Both Mer and Jack won prizes for running the most laps in their age groups. Mer won movie tickets and a sports bag and Jack won a pedometer.
I guess running home from the park everyday pays off.
Last Friday Jack had his Holidays around the world concert. Jack's class sang "Santa Claus is coming to town".
They had a surprise visit from Santa and Luke got to sit on his lap.
He even came to visit the classroom afterward.
Sunday we had invited friends over for some Ginger bread House Decorating.
It was so much fun. And well worth the consequence of a sticky kitchen floor.
And Finally, yesterday was our 14 year Anniversary. How time does fly. We spent the evening attending Mer's Chorus concert and then ripping apart the back of Doug's car so he could change the brake light and open the trunk, which has been stuck shut for the last 2 months. We actually celebrated our anniversary already by treating ourselves to a trip to Orlando on Friday night. We saw La Nouba, went to dinner, and did some shopping without children the next day.
And now Christmas is upon us. We have a couple more activities to check off the list and a few more gifts to buy. Excitement is mounting and Sunday can't come soon enough.
And now I must figure out a healthy dinner to whip up to counter act all the sweets of the week. Ciao!
