Audrey's First Visit to Santa

Well, Audrey's first visit to Santa went about as expected, as the picture shows...

Audrey Christmas Program

Audrey's school Christmas program was this week. It was so cute! Everyone met in the gym about 6:30 Tuesday night, and we were out of there by 7:00. It was short, sweet, and wonderful - just the way programs for their age should be. :o) Audrey's age sang Jingle Bells, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, and Silent Night. Audrey didn't do much but looked a little freaked out, but it was still so fun to watch her get up in front of 300 people with her peers and put on a cute show!

December 2010 Events so far

December has been a busy month so far. We had a celebration for Grandma and Grandpa Nichol's 60th wedding anniversary, combined with Grandpa's 80th birthday celebration and Kellen's blessing at church, not to mention my anniversary coming up, Christmas, and Audrey's birthday. December is a jam-packed month!

Grandma and Grandpa's celebration was great. My aunt Marie flew in from Kansas for the occasion, which means that my grandparents were able to have three of their four kids here for the big day! I know that meant a lot to them. For dinner we had a roast, potatoes, green bean casserole, and a big beautiful cake! I took several pictures which I will post below.

In addition to those pictures, I will post a few from Kellen's blessing day, and some from decorating the Christmas tree!
