Serious Fun in December!

 As usual for December, lots and lots have been going on! Jesse competed in his school spelling bee and did well...he was a nervous wreck!!!

 Claire was Mary in her class Nativity Story play and was adorable and remembered all her lines!!!

 Jesse and his 8th grade Beta Club member set up for the St. Jude Marathon by setting up over 11,000 medals!  They worked hard in the pouring rain, and had a blast doing it!

 

Claire getting ready for her Christmas Program at School

 Of course, the Christmas season would not be complete with out The Nutcracker! We went to our yearly viewing and this year had the pleasure of sitting super close and watching 2 of our friends perform!  It was such fun seeing Claire mesmerized by the whole thing.  She truly enjoys that ballet so much!

 We went to dinner before at Mosa with Lance and Jesse, and grandma met us at the last minute (right down the street from her house) and off to the Orpheum she and I went!

We have tons of stuff coming up, so I promise to post again soon!

Love, Gretchen
