Rainbow Loom Bracelets

Jolene got a loom bracelet kit for Christmas and has been

enjoying making bracelets for everyone who wants one, or not,

she even made one for Ella.  I'm not sure Ella as happy about

it as her friends, but she get to wear it anyway.

 

~Holiday Concert

With the holidays comes the annual holiday music concert of schools.  All the elementary schools, along with the middle school and high schools sing and play Christmas music.  The students have worked so hard the past several weeks to perfect their performances.  Both of the girls performed.  Jolene has been singing in her school choir for the past couple of years, Raychel performed her last holiday performance as a middle schooler.  They all did a wonderful job.

Our neighbor was throwing away her old

cedar chest and asked if we would be interested in it!!

YES!!

It was a little scratched up, but

goodness it is about 40 years old!!

Nothing some sandpaper and paint

couldn't fix! It will be a great toy chest!

Church Christmas Party

The church Christmas party was really nice.

Great food, great company, a few really nice

musical numbers and then the wait.....It's always easier with friends as they waited.....and waited.....to sit on Santa's lap and tell him all

they wanted him to bring.

When we got home the girls both asked if they

were on the good list or the naughty list!!

We assured them the good list!!
