I had 10 students playing in the recital this year! It was a lot of fun and very rewarding to see their hard work pay off, as they all did great.Carter played 'What Child is This' and 'Boogie Woogie Beat'. Gabby volunteered to go first and played 'Hark, How the Bells' and 'Happy Song'. Thanks to the Tenneys for letting us use their home for the recital!

The kids teamed up to decorate a gingerbread house before Christmas. Turned out pretty good!

 

Can't believe Carter is 9 today! Thought we would put up some of her baby pics and ooo and ahhh :) She was so cute.

Nate took me in to see his latest lego creation...it's Nate and his Daddy sitting on the couch, watching a football game, eating dinner. Ha ha! Nate is his Daddy's boy!

As part of our preschool co-op, we decided to do a zoo day. Since it landed on Veteran's day, the big brothers and sisters got to come too. The kids got to do a cute scavenger hunt (thanks Beth!) to keep track of all the animals they saw and enjoyed being with their friends all day!
