Long Time No Post

Once again I feel like it's been ages since I've posted! To those of you who read, I'm sorry!

We finished up 2012 with a bangin' Christmas party. Ok it was really just my kids and I eating a lot of icing as we decorated Christmas cookies but they had a good time! The Christmas program went really well and it was a joy choreographing my first dance for the fourth grade girls! Mom, dad and I made our very own ribbons! We used red satin ribbon, dowels, adhesive picture hooks, and a round hook! Got the idea from the web and it was so great!

Lovely Christmas Eve and Christmas day with my parents! We went to a Christmas Eve service at First Baptist Church in Lexington. It was a kids service full of glow-sticks and stuffed animals. The message was great too! God accepts us with our flaws and all. A message I've heard quite a lot recently; hope it encourages you too! Came home to meatballs, potatoish skins, and delicious green beans! oh and cookies of course! Christmas day we had presents and a standing rib roast! What a treat! We are so truly blessed, praise the Lord!

Today we are headed to IKEA in Charlotte I believe. I'm catching up on grading and some other odds and ends, so thankful for breaks!

I thought of something I wanted to post about as I re-potted our class green bean and apple plant. That will have to wait for another day as my daddy is ready to go and well I have a few things to do. Happy New Year!

I DEFINITELY think they can dance!

Mom and I got to have a girls' night out and see So You Think You Can Dance-live tour! I was so impressed! It was really neat how they integrated technology and transitioned from one number to the next! They made dancing look so easy but I know it wasn't!! Solid dancing for about 2 hours and it was quite warm in the Township! They must have been exhausted!! Needless to say, it was a great show!!
