First Grade Christmas Program

The first graders at Bernardo Elementary sang some holiday songs tonight!  It was really sweet!

Oliver raced to his classroom!

He was excited about the cookies that were being

served afterwards!

Oliver and his teacher, Mrs. Nordman.

They got to color while they waited!

Sweet reindeer.

Still working on Oliver's handwriting...

Encouragement and practice are important.

Sentence strips.  Their poem!

Oliver stayed with his peers, while Mommy and

his Daddy went to wait for the performance to

start.

The Holiday Program!

(It was a long wait.)

Finally the first graders made it out!

Can you spy a cute kid, who was a little stage shy?

Paper plate movements!

Oliver did a great job.  Mommy likes watching

him perform!

He loved the cookies the best!

Oliver and his Daddy.

Oliver and Tickle Monster Mommy.

(Oops, its time for Mommy to go to bed...)

Mommy is proud of her little singer.  She looks forward to seeing him Friday night.

Donut Wednesday Eve

We went to Donut Wednesday Eve this morning because we just can't stand not going together this week!  We had fun!

Happy Tuesday!

Mommy likes when he holds her hand.

Messy Redhead! 

Choosing!

Paying.

Oliver's Donut Holes.

Mommy's Donut Hole.

Oliver likes Egg Nog.  Good Stuff.

Mommy's dark, deep coffee.

(She tries to lighten it up

 with the good stuff.)  It seems to

kind of work.  Maybe?  Seriously.

Good stuff mustache!  

Good morning!

The clouds were really neat on the way to 

Oliver's school.

Mommy will see Oliver tomorrow and watch his Holiday performance.  She is missing him right now.  

Swim

We had a nice Monday back at school!  We went for a swim at night, its always nice to get back into routine after a long break!

Happy Monday!

Sharon swam with Oliver while Mommy went

to get her camera in the car.  (Mommy's brain

is like mush, she can't think of anything

clever to write.)

She threw Oliver up in the air!!! Fun!  

Afterwards we worked on a little homework!

Oliver will be off this his Daddy after school tomorrow.  Mommy will see her little swimmer at his holiday performance on Wednesday evening at 6:30 and then again for a little together time on Friday night and Saturday morning!

December

Happy December!  Mommy wanted to share our calendars!

Masha!

"Let's wrap it in peace."

(That would be nice.)

Happy Holidays!!!

Sunday

We had a nice day together!

We swam first!

 It was a beautiful day!

Here is another blue sky picture!

 On the way home:

We stopped to see the house on Romeria Street

that gets all decorated and beautiful for Christmas!

Just in case you need the streets!  If you can

check out the house when all the lights are up

and on!!!

 We came home to rest, play, and decorate!

Oliver is excited about his advent calendar!  He practiced on one 

in November so he would understand the waiting part.

We finished decorating our home!

Mommy will post more pictures later!

But here are the tops of our two trees!

And here is Harry!  

We also enjoyed listening to our Christmas

CD.  Its filled with older songs!  Its is 

one of Mommy's favorite keepsakes!

We enjoyed our pretty trees with the lights off for

a little bit tonight.

Happy December!

(Goodnight and sweet dreams.)
