F is for.....

FRANKINCENSE!

Nicholas had his Christmas ABC's performance at school today! He spoke his lines very clearly (F is for Frankincense) then

he sang his little heart out! He picked out his stage outfit complete with tie!

7's Up!

Happy 7th Birthday Salvatore!

Where Are You.....

Where are you Christmas
Why can't I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can't I hear music play
My world is changing
I'm rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too
Where are you Christmas
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I'm not the same one
See what the time's done
Is that why you have let me go

This year we are still not ready for Christmas....Oh Christmas where are you? Hopefully we can find him this weekend or our snowman stockings are going to be lonely....

Christmas Wish....

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth!
Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas."

Do you think this is Kelli's wish this Christmas?

Beautifully Baked!

The girls helped out their GEMS club with two loafs of beautifully baked Chocolate Chip Banana Bread! (Ed baked not me so it was safe to sell.) YUMMY! GEMS is hoping to raise with todays bake sale.

Perfect Parade!

Before the Christmas Parade!
Waiting for the parade to start with baton buddies Gwen and Mikala
The girls marched beautifully with M&M Sweeties.

45 Down 135 To Go....

Sal and Kelli did not miss one day of school during the first nine weeks!

Their friend AJ was also at the 1st Nine Weeks Award Ceremony! Great job to our 1st graders!

Merry Christmas

Happy December! Merry Christmas to your family from ours!

Little Drummer Girl

In November I spent 3 days helping the first graders make drums for their Thanksgiving show. Sal and Kelli where so excited to bring home the biggest thank you card signed by all the first graders.

Tuesdays Treasure: Soul Sisters!

A sister is one of the nicest things
that can happen to anyone.
She is someone to laugh with and share with,
to work with and join in the fun with.
She is someone who helps in the rough times,
and knows when you need a warm smile.
She is someone who will quietly listen,
when you just want to talk for a while.
A sister is dear to you always,
for she is someone who is always a part
of all the favorite memories
that you keep very close to your heart.
It is wonderful to have a sister, a best friend. I am so blessed that Kelli has this now. I hope she continues to grow that special bond with Emma as I have with Tyrene.

Snow Sisters!

A snowy moment between sisters!

Snow "Celebration"!

It is beginning to look alot like Christmas!
With "snow"

Kelli feels the snowflake....

Even if Sal knows it is fake!

Nick wants a snowball fight....

Emma thinks this snow is a fright!

Vinny proclaimed the snow is soap so everyone can wash their hair tonight!

We enjoyed Celebrations snowy night!

Super Science Saturday

The Orlando Science Center has 4 floors of fun. The first floor is the aquarium and Florida swamp area, the braver children got to touch the alligator and see some very cool fish!

Reptiles and Dinosaurs on level four!

Earthquakes and construction on two!

Sharks were on the third floor in amaze, where all the children took off leaving me alone with the camera.
