Santa

Santa came to school today to visit all of the kids.  

 Excited on the way to school

Staring him down

And...she's done!

Who is that guy?

I'm so over this.

Christmas Program

Amelia's school puts on a Christmas program and all classrooms participate.

some of the teachers on the stage:

Pastor Rob

Sitting with some of her classmates

getting out her bell for Jingle Bells

Her "candle" for "This Little Light of Mine"

 Ringing her bell

Someone likes my pillows!

Birthday Party

Amelia's cousin Caiden had his birthday party at Mr. Gatti's while we were in San Angelo.  It was Amelia's first trip to an arcade and she had a blast!

San Angelo Thanksgiving

We had an interesting beginning to our Thanksgiving vacation...the water pump and fan clutch went out on the truck right outside of Colorado City. Luckily we coasted, literally, into the parking lot of an auto repair shop.  It was five o'clock so they were closing but the owner promised to get to us the day after Thanksgiving.  Marty's parents drove to Colorado City to save us!  Thankfully, we had the trusted Radio Flyer to keep Amelia busy.

We had a great Thanksgiving and Amelia had some same-sized friends to share it with!

She REALLY liked Marty's mashed potatoes!

Amelia and her Great Grandparents!

Time for dessert! Whipped Cream!

New Ride

One of my co-workers, Traci, has given Amelia some really great toys, and the newest is a cool new car! It has a handle that raises for me to push her or lowers for her to push the car.  Currently, she only likes having a chauffeur, but she turns on the blinkers, honks the horn, and plays the radio.  

School Thanksgiving

Amelia's school had Thanksgiving lunch for the kids and their parents and then I hung around for playtime outside.
