Christmas 2012

We had a wonderful, snowy Christmas and holiday break from school.  We enjoyed 2012 and are looking forward to great things in 2013!

Layton had his first school party, which was fun to attend and see how he acts and interacts!

Making a Christmas tree from an ice cream cone, icing and M&Ms.  We have a wonderful room mother (Laci Reed)!

 Parents send a $5 gift for their child to open.  Layton really wanted a watch.  Here he is opening the package.

Here is his reaction!

Chiristmas morning.

Snow came on Christmas day and lasted for several thereafter.  This was the 26th when we finally got out and played in the white stuff.

Guess Who Came to School Today?

The CAT!

Our cat (we only have one left) jumped in the engine area of my car this morning (Fri., 12/11).  I thought he had, but didn't have time to look.  The boys wanted me to stop and pop the hood, but I just blew them off and said it would be fine that he probably got in Clint's pickup, not my car.

Well, I left the campus for lunch and when I returned back to school, the cat ran up to me and greeted me.  I was not as excited to see him, as he was me.  Scared that he was going to run off (not sure why I thought that since he had apparently hung around all morning) I took him into my office until I could run him home, which was eventful.  He is a barn cat and doesn't like to ride in the cab part of the car.

When I told the boys the story, they were amazed that the cat had visited school.
