Good Morning! It is Christmas Eve and I jumped out of bed at 6:30 a.m. intending to finish up my list of things to do. I had planned on finishing everything yesterday so that I could spend the next two days just enjoying Christmas, but we jumped in the car with our hot chocolates and drove over to Chesapeake Beach to see their lights. I'm so glad we did! Not only were the lights beautiful and fun for the kids, but the moon was huge and yellowish/orange!! So, here I am NOT doing anything on my list as of 7:47 a.m, drinking my coffee, reading my favorite blogs, and trying to squeeze in some of my own. I am trying to add in everything that has happened around here before the new year ends because I would like to use one of the companies that takes your blog and makes it into a book. I think that is the best idea ever---I have great intentions of scrap booking every year and I love buying all of the stuff...then I pack it away. Blogging will allow me to record special moments/projects throughout the years that I may forget about later.
So, on that note...both of my daughters were in Christmas plays this year. Kenny was a Comet in hers...
Brittany is helping her with her hair and make-up before hand...
Awe, sisters....gotta love em...
Some of the gang who came to see our little shining.....comet....
A part in the play with the moon and the stars....
My little comet makes her debut....sniffle...sniffle...and oh my, she does not look like she is ten up there!
I wish she would turn around so we could get a better picture...but...well, that just isn't part of the play...so whistling to get her attention would probably not be a great idea...we showed great restraint...
There we go! Now we can get a wonderful blurry picture as they line up to take their bow :)
Cookies and Juice after for everyone there!! We are so proud of her, she did great!!
Then, my little Nyla had a play of her own in her preschool...
She was a "Wise Queen," yes, she takes after her mother :) They sang some songs....
Rang some bells while singing "Jingle Bells!"
Sang the Jesus version of Bingo was his name-o...
Then they ended it with singing "Happy Birthday" to Baby Jesus!
A group picture....
Aahh...so adorable!!!!
Me and my girls....
and Nyla's Jake...sorry Britt!
I love watching these plays, it is one of the best parts of Christmas for me...it is always a great reminder of what is important during this time of the year!
Yep...it's the most wonderful time of the year!!
Now, off to quickly finish my to-do list so we can start our holiday!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
