Our Christmas





We had our Christmas on Monday morning because Corbin had to go back to his mom's on Wednesday! It was a great morning.
The boys went through their stockings first. Corbin went through his then tried to get Garrett to pull stuff out of his. Didn't work too well, so he finally just poured it out! Corbin opened movies, cds, a gameboy game, a backpack, and some clothes. Then he helped Garrett open his presents. He said I got a lot of stuff but none of them were big like Garrett's. We didn't say anything. Then he asked if he could play his gameboy game and I said sure, after you get dressed and walk Milo. So, while he was getting ready, I went downstairs and waited for him. When he got downstairs, he didn't even see his big present until I called his name. Then he turned and saw his bike. He said is that for me? I said, who else would it be for? He was happy and started checking it out. I said now, you see why you didn't open your big present upstairs and he said yeah!
Robert's mom came up that afternoon and we had Christmas with her. Then we rode to Tanglewood to look at lights, but Garrett was throwing a major fit, so it wasn't the most enjoyable time!
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year!

Snow Day

On Friday, it started sleeting/snowing about 9 am on Friday. Students were dismissed at 9:30 and teachers were able to leave at 11! It was a great party day! My students ate cupcakes, cheese doodles, and drank Capri Suns at 8:30! We did gift exchange at 9 and sent them home! It snowed all day Friday and through the night!

On Saturday, we took Garrett out for his first snow! We put him on Corbin's sled and Robert pulled him down the hill! He wasn't sure what to think! He didn't love having to be all bundled up!

A Busy Week

When Corbin got here on Sunday, we put our tree up!



Corbin's Christmas Program was Monday night! They danced to two songs and he did it! I was so proud! I figured he would be all shy and hide, but he was getting down...lol!



Garrett's Christmas Program at Salem-Sloan Daycare was Thursday night! I know, you are asking yourself, what kind of Christmas program can a baby have? Well, they put the 4 child stroller on the stage and made it look like a sleigh and all the babies wore red and sit up there, while the one and two year olds wore brown and antlers and were reindeer. Basically, he just sat up there and tried to tear the sleigh down by grabbing hold of it and jerking it...lol! It was precious, none the less!
