Christmas Program

Bryce's school had a Christmas program a few weeks ago, and I finally got around to downloading the video. Bryce was the center of attention, of course...

Note his toe tapping in this one:

Merry Christmas!

Merry white Christmas! The last time Dallas had a white Christmas was in 1929. Amazing, huh?

SNOW!

Yes, that's right. I said the "s" word... Snow! Typical Texas weather. It was 77 degrees yesterday and 34 today. In the over 30 years I've lived in Texas, we've never had a white Christmas. Of course, because this is Texas, there's no guarantee the snow will actually stick around til tomorrow.

It's hot!

77 degrees on December 23rd?Hardly feels like Christmas. Thank goodness it will be in the 40s tomorrow. Go figure- Texas weather.

Christmas "fireworks"

Bryce has a Little People nativity set. When you push a button, the star lights up and it sings "Away in the Manger". Well, Bryce thought the star was fireworks! Even funnier, he said "Baby Jesus says 'ooh ahh' when he watches the fireworks!"

Christmas cookies!

Bryce, Aunt Beauty, and I baked and decorated Christmas cookies for Bryce's classmates. The dough was too soft and Bryce tried to eat every cookie and all the icing, but somehow we got it done! Thanks, Aunt "Booty" for your help! We definitely couldn't have done it without you!

Elf on the shelf

Bryce got an Elf on the Shelf this year. For those of you that haven't heard about this it's genius. The elf comes with a book that explains how he flies home each night to the north pole to tell Santa if you've been a good boy or not. Each morning the elf is in a different place in the house that the kid had to find. Ours is named Diego (as in Dora and Diego). If you have kids, get the elf!

Brr!

Winter came in with a bang this week. High in the 40s. We took Bryce to the Grapevine Parade of Lights last night. It was a typical parade with middle and high school bands, etc but he did get to see "Ho Ho" on the last float. We froze,but he saw Santa so that made his day!
