"It's almost Christmas!!!"

"It's almost Christmas!!" is Chasen's favorite phrase lately! He is really excited about Christmas this year, he really seems to understand what Christmas is all about-Santa Claus and Baby Jesus! We look forward to baking cookies, driving through the town to see Christmas lights, singing Christmas songs at church, and watching Christmas movies!

Chasen had his Christmas party at school on Friday and came home with holiday pictures and an ornament to put on the tree (this is the picture). His class watched The Polar Express and he got to wear pajamas and eat cocoa all day! At my school I wore antlers and participated in the Reindeer Games, our holiday version of Field Day! I got a little too involved and wiped out on the court, my knees are bruised and sore and I ache in places I didn't know existed! But it was a lot of fun!
