Art and Poetry Night

I know most of you have never got to experience Art and Poetry night at my kids school. The whole school is transformed into an Art Museum and there is Art and Poetry everywhere!!!!!! It is hard to get through and look, there are so many people!!!! Here are some pictures of the kids in there classrooms. There is also a picture of each kid and his teacher.



Mitchell and his teacher Trishann









Mitchell's picture is the one that is mounted on red.


William and Chantel. You can see William's art work between them.





This shows the people walking through William's class and I would call this very light traffic, it gets to be standing room only.
I will try to post some of their art and poetry later. I don't have it yet, I will need to go to the school and pick it up.

Nativity


This is a picture of the Nativity Wesley made us for Christmas. We got to open it early because it was a Christmas decoration.


Short Story: Wesley goes to preschool at my friend Shayna's house. The day I put up my nativity set Wesley got really excited. He said I know what that is, it is an "Activity". My teacher has one. I thought that was cute.

Albuquerque's First REAL Snow





It has actually snowed a couple of times, but it melted when it hit the ground and it was so small it was hard to see. With this snowfall we will probably get a two hour delay tomorrow at school or maybe even a cancellation. Which should seem absolutely ridiculous to most of you. Because the first time they cancelled school here in Albuquerque I laughed my socks off.

Here is a little video of our snow.

Why I don't write Christmas Letters

The first step in writing a Christmas letter is to get a good picture of my children. Once I pick the picture then I start the writing. Well as I look through the pictures of this year I realize I don't have a good picture of all 4 of my children. So I decided to take one before the Ward Christmas party. However, that did not work out either. Here is the best of the worst:

Shelby didn't want to sit and get her picture taken. Mitchell was trying his hardest to keep her in her seat. Wesley was being silly the whole time and William was board. As you can see, I can never get to step two which is actually writing the letter!!!

What a difference a year makes


This is a picture of Shelby last year by the Christmas Tree. She was a really good baby, she never touched the tree.

This is a picture of Shelby this year. Notice there are no decorations on the tree. She takes them off and breaks them. Therefore, our tree is bare on the bottom half . She also likes to take the train off the tracks (notice the train behind her).

Money well Spent

The boys earned money by watching the animals next door. William got this really awesome sword.


Mitchell had birthday money to add to his pet sitting money so he got this really cool game he has wanted for awhile, but it was to expensive. It is called Heroscape and you build your own board and you can buy expansion packs with other creatures and game tiles for battle.
