Holiday Partying

We have been partying hard around here. There is so much you can do during the holidays and I think that's why I love it so much. We are busy bees around here and this month has been no exception.

This past weekend we were able to get together with a handful of Josh's football pals & roomates from Snow College (the best school ever). It had been a long time since we had seen most of them, so it was good to finally get together. All of our kids are around the same age which made it even more fun. They all had a good time playing with each other. Within a year or two our kids are going to out number us. That's how you know we're getting old! ;)

 Here are Adam & Josh wearing their prized white elephant gifts :)

Us ladies on my moms side had a girls night out to see The Nutcracker. We used to do it all the time growing up but then took a break. This was our first time seeing the show in quite a few years. It was fab! I have a lot more appreciation for the show they put together & the dancers than I did when I was young.

This weekend we officially started our Christmas break! Hallelujah! We kept busy making sugar cookies & gingerbread houses. Beckett has more fun eating the toppings, of course :)


Last, but not least, we had Beckett's Christmas program last week that his school put on. We have been anxiously awaiting to see it for weeks. It was Beckett's first program of any kind and we weren't sure how he would do. He came out on stage with his class, arms folded, and looking handsome. He did fabulous! They sang Christmas songs and each child has their own speaking part. Josh & I didn't even know what his speaking part was, the school keeps it on the down low. When it was Beckett's turn he spoke right into the microphone loud and clear and said his part. We were proud parents :)



Afterwards, the kids had the opportunity to see Santa. Clearly, Beckett still isn't into sitting on Santa's lap. Maybe next year!

Merry Christmas!
Love, The Sharps
