Deacon performed in the Kindergarten Christmas Program yesterday! I was excited that they put him in the front row :) He has been worried all week that he wouldn't be able to sing because he has had a bad sore throat and cough. He said last time they practiced he just moved his lips! Well, his worrying was for nothing because he sang, danced and jingled his way through a great program!
He even made the paper here.
We went to the annual Light Parade in Victor the 1st Sat in December. Fun activities all day followed by a light parade and good fireworks display at night. Liston and Deacon both won a turkey at the turkey bowling. Deacon almost went down the lane with the turkey they were useing because he didn't let go when he was supposed to. I was to slow with the camera for it though.
Here are the boys on top of a snow bank they found watching the fireworks.
Gas station was giving out some good hot chocolate all day long. We did get more than one.
They don't throw out candy for some reason:) But the glow sticks they do throw out are a hit.
Here Mare is with our friend Jen. It was kinda funny because we ran into her there last year for the fireworks as well.
We've been snowed in since Monday---so we've had to get creative on ways to pass the time! Yesterday we played with playdough, made flavored snow (we may never run out!), read 985 books and played chicken foot over and over and over again :) Well, even after all that "fun" Deacon wandered up to me and said--"I'm still bored!" So for dinner I decided to have the boys make their own mini pizzas! They had sooo much fun! I wish I'd got some pics of everyone putting their pizzas together but we were too busy creating! Here are a few of the finished product!
I posted this on my other blog but thought I'd share it here as well! We truly have so much to be grateful for :)
Well I can now say that winter has finally made it's way to Driggs. We had such a gorgeous autumn that I can't really complain about the snow :) Deacon headed out on Saturday intent on building himself a snowman--with NO HELP! And he did it! He was so proud of himself that he asked me to snap a few pics! Didn't he do a great job?
And one of Coleman just cause he's so stinkin cute!
Yes, I have been lame at posting lately. We've had such a great summer and fall and I've been too lazy to post. Todd even took pity on me and posted the last few blog entries! I promise I'll get going again--not tonight--but soon :)
Liston turned 7 on the 2nd. So the post is a little late. He had a fun day. He got to eat his favorite Pizza. Play video games for a looong time. Followed by his requested birthday cheesecake.
Some pics of the day.
