Claire's Christmas Program

Claire's school had their Christmas program on Thursday last week, and it was so cute! We were all very impressed with the behavior of all the kids. There were some rather long speaking parts from a teacher, and everyone stood or sat so still and quietly. Claire said that they had practiced that a lot, and it showed. The theme was "The Colors of Christmas" and all the different classes wore different colored shirts. Claire had been practicing and practicing her class song "Red and Green" since Thanksgiving, and she was ready to sing the morning of the program. And she did a great job! She was one of only a couple kids in her class who actually knew the entire song and hand motions, so they put her in the front and told her to sing LOUD! (Which now explains why she insisted on practically yelling it whenever she sang at home.) After the program ended, we all went back to her classroom for their little class party. They ate pizza and had a gift exchange, and all the kids gave their parents a little present they had made--a hand print in a plaster ornament.

Shocked to see us as they walked into the church.

Too many flashes!
