This is the week I have officially donned “Christmas Madness.” We literally had something scheduled for every night this week! Monday was our (18th) anniversary date, Tuesday was a church Christmas cantada rehearsal, Wednesday was the high school choir concert, Thursday was SUPPOSED to be the band concert (with a fundraiser-dessert-bar which I chair each year) but it was cancelled due to the ice, and tonight was the cutest little preschool program you ever did see.
It’s an odd thing to watch your seventeen year old daughter sing Santa Baby on Wednesday night and then two days later laugh your heart out when your three year old decides to bang the poor kid next to her with her jingle bell! But oh, weren’t we the proudest parents at both events? We definitely enjoy the whole spectrum of things around here. 🙂
BELOW: Abbey singing “Santa Baby.” Who is that tall kid behind her in the blue shirt and the goofy pink tie? That would be her younger brother, Truett. I would say “little” brother, except he’s about six inches taller than she is. (He was supposed to show up for the concert wearing a tie and when he didn’t, the director made him wear the one she brought. Joke was totally on him!)

Oh, my goodness, what fun pictures! “Santa Baby,” pink tie, Shirley Temple hair bow…all too fun! Your kids are so blessed to have you as their mom. Spencer’s blessed too. Any chance about that ring?…
