This year our daycare held their 1st Holiday Show. All of the classes practiced their performances for weeks, and some even made costumes.
Mia's class was supposed to dance to "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" but the performance can only be described as a total disaster.
Ian's class sang three songs. Ian knew all the words and sang along the whole time, but he didn't seem to be enjoying himself very much.
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer:
Jingle Bells:

Santa Visits
We've been busy making the rounds on the holiday party circuit this weekend. Last night the kids stayed up way past their bedtimes to visit with Santa during his annual pre-Christmas visit to Frugality Ct.
Ian was happy to see Santa, and even happier to get a new car-building kit as an early gift!
Mia wasn't sure what to think of Santa at first ...
... but she quickly made up her mind.
We thought we'd give it another try at Joe's company Christmas party this afternoon, but Mia still didn't want anything to do with Santa. We were even in a completely different room and Santa walked by and smiled at her and she screamed all over again. Sorry Santa, maybe next year.
Ian also got his face painted like Rudolph (he hasn't let us wash it off yet).
And just for good measure, here's one of Mia "rearranging" some ornaments on the tree.

Decking the Halls
We've been busy getting ready for Christmas!
Last weekend we went to a tree farm to find the perfect tree. Ian helped Daddy cut it down and drag it to the barn.
Refueling with some apple cider while waiting for the tractor to take us and our tree back to the parking lot
Ian was a big help with the ornaments
Mia just wanted to pull them off and scatter them around the house
Finished!
Yesterday it was 70 degrees so we headed out to the Winter Walk of Lights at Meadowlark Gardens. Mia rode in the stroller and pointed at all the colors and shapes. Ian led the way down the path of lights and stopped for a few photos at his favorite spots.
