Christmas Program

Cooper's Christmas Program was Monday night and we had a great time.  I was a little worried because she had missed the entire week prior and I know the kids had been practicing a lot, but she did great! 

This year they just included the 3 and 4 year olds instead of having the 2 year olds in the mix.  It was a much more mature program versus last year (both were equally cute.)

Cooper decided she didn't want to sing, but she did play the bells and stood there waving at us like crazy.  I was shocked she didn't take the chance to sing her heart out for an audience because 90% of our days involve her singing everything from "Silent Night" to "Single Ladies."  She is such a ham.  (For those of you who have received a Christmas caroling phone message- how funny is her version of Jingle Bells?  Trenton and I laugh hysterically everytime she sings it.)

One of the kids in her class from last year went rogue during the performance and started saying all this crazy stuff and another was grabbing his "business" and screaming, "It's pee pee time!"  It was so funny!  Love this age.

We stayed after and had cookies and punch and visited with our friends.  It was a great way to get our family in the Christmas spirit.  Our house is decorated, the tree is up and Trenton has adorned the front and back of our house in Christmas lights.  My parents gave us some of their "yard art," so we now have lighted penguins and a choo choo train.   Counting down the days for Santa!  Cooper has Santa fever big time...before I even know what kind of naughty thing she has done, she says, "Santa is still going to bring me presents, right?" 

The pictures aren't the best- I am hoping I can get some from friends who might have taken better ones.

  1. So fun! Isn't it funny what they learn these days? I am amazed at the songs Ansley has learned in the past couple of weeks. She is usually belting them out when she should be napping in her room :)
