December, so far! :)

We're having such a fun December so far! Full of lots and lots of special moments! We've been to two of Daddy's band concerts, our church Christmas cantata, the children's Christmas musical, a visit with Santa, and Olivia's class party (just this morning!). Tonight is our choir Christmas party which is a progressive supper--always lots of fun, and tomorrow is Benjamin's class party. Thursday night there is a live nativity that I am hoping we might get to go see, and Friday is the last day of school! Yippee! And I've already talked with Benjamin and told him we'll all be sleeping in until at least 7:30 on Saturday morning. He seems like he's willing to cooperate (but something tells me my little early bird will still wake us up at about 5:50 or maybe if we're lucky 6:15!!). Thank you, Lord for this busy, but wonderful, sweet time of anticipation! Come Emmanuel!!
PS-I don't know why these pictures always are jumbled in the slideshow. I put them in order in the album, and then they come out like this. If anyone knows any tips, I'll take them. :)
