Party time!

We started the month off by getting Grace's very first Christmas tree.  She was not very impressed but Jake and Julianna were very excited to start the Christmas season. 


The past few weeks I have been focused on our first annual Christmas party.  It was Saturday and we had a great turn out and caught up with lots of friends.  The kids were upstairs and slept through the entire event so that was wonderful!  Here's a picture of some of my very favorite people!


The next day we took the kids to see Disney Live.  All Julianna wanted was to see "Apunzel" (Rapunzel from Tangled) but she was a no show.  However Jasmine and Ariel were there and it was a good show and she forgot by the end.  She and Jake were singing and dancing.  Such fun to watch!


Today was the last day of school for the year.  I am actually looking forward to a break from rushing out the door every morning.  So the kids had their Christmas parties this morning.  I was in charge of the sweet treat for Jake's party but it was a cowboy theme...which is just not in my wheelhouse.  Pinterest to the rescue...not to mention Brian who went to 3 different stores to get just the right gumdrops.



After setting up for the cowboy Panda party I rushed down the hall to the Bunny party.  Oh my gosh tears are coming to my eyes as I type.  To see little Julianna walk in and stand on her spot on the carpet so excited to sing her little heart out.  And sing she did with all kinds of joy.  I will post the video of each song next.  It's awesome.



After the bunny party we rushed back to the panda room to catch the end of that party.  Jake was playing musical chairs and made it to the final two but lost in a tight race to Alex.  But he lost gracefully (a definite accomlishment for Jake) andran off to do his craft.  Julianna made herself at home with the girls and had a great time.   Needless to say I am going to bed early tonight!



But with days until Christmas I may need to start wrapping a few presents!
