This was Haleigh’s Christmas program at school.  It was so cute.  All the classes came out dressed with their reindeer antlers and sang.  She was so excited.  It was fun to watch the kids find their parents when they got up on the stage.  Their excitement couldn’t have been missed.  So precious. 

We came home and made reindeer food for Christmas Eve to share with friends.  Then we had to make James a hat like Haleigh he had.  He said he was ready to go to school too. 

I got all the glitter cleaned up (finally) after the ornaments and then turned around and let them make Snowflakes with GLITTER.  Oh well, we remain sparkly. We decided we needed to make it look wintry in the house since we have seen and will not see much snow right now.

And then we decide to make sugar cookies.  Whew!  What fun!!

Can you see the amount of icing and sprinkles in her cookie?

James loved the sprinkles.  I mean, he WOULD NOT stop eating them. 

Haleigh did really well with the piping bag.  I was truly impressed.  And then she put so many sprinkles on top that you could see her handy work.  Worked out good for Chris—those are his favorites!

And finally we had a wonderful, yet short, visit with Tom and Jaci.  The kids loved spending time with them, as did we.  They loved their new umbrellas.  So much for the “don’t open an umbrella” in the house rule.
