More Christmas Parties!

Both of the boys had their school Christmas Parties on Wednesday morning. I'm Zach's Room Parent, so I was in his room. Lily was excited to come too!

The kids all made a wreath ornament craft and did a Christmas word search. Santa also dropped by with some treats for the kids!

After the kids got all of their yummy snacks, I snuck over to Riley's room to say hi to him.

He was enjoying some yummy snacks too and showed me the fun craft he got to make. All three kids had fun at the parties!

Then in the afternoon, we went to the party the kids have been waiting for all month; Jeff's work party. Now I realize that doesn't sound too fun, but it really is. Jeff's boss realizes that a lot of us have kids, and it is hard for some people to get sitters, so a few years ago, he started making the Christmas party at The Alley so everyone could bring their kids. So nice!!

They get to go bowling (I didn't actually take any pictures of them bowling though...), eat pizza, and drink pop!

The boys also get to ride the go-karts!!

(Sorry for the picture quality...I took all of these with my cellphone.)

The kids have SO much fun!! And Jeff & I get to talk to all of the adults since the kids are busy with all of the activities. =)
Now all of our parties are over. So today, we are enjoying the first day of Christmas break by making crafts, reading Christmas books, and watching Christmas movies. =)

Cinco de Mayo

On Thursday, the kids had their annual Cinco de Mayo dance.
Every class has Spanish class at least once a week with Senora Nicholas.
Every May 5th, she has a program where the kids can show off what they have learned.
They sing songs in Spanish and dance to them!
This year, the kindergartners sang three songs.
Peter Rabbit, The Moon, and The Chicken Dance.
Riley got to be Peter Rabbit!

Then he got down doing The Chicken Dance!

It was so cute!

They walked around in circles singing, then they would stop and do the chicken dance.

Riley would make sure he stopped right in front of me so I could take his picture.

It didn't matter how much he should have moved over to stop. :0)
He's such a ham!

They also did a great song singing a sweet song about the moon.

After the 1st graders sang, it was time for Zach's class!
His class did a dance to the song Rocky Top.

Zach is also a ham.

I had to stop taking pictures, because he would move up from his line to make sure I could see him. :)

Both boys did a great job!

Here are some videos of the boys dancing!
