The 18th through 21st Day of Christmas

On the 18th day of Christmas we went for a drive to see Christmas lights. We had to drive quite far to see lots of lights since there are not many large neighborhoods where we live. During our drive we got lost and even though it wasn't very late Carter fell asleep. Luckily we didn't get too lost and were able to get home safe and surprisingly without the GPS.


On the 19th day of Christmas we made homemade cards for our friends. Braden and Carter colored Christmas pictures and wrote special Christmas greetings to some of their very best friends.  FYI: Carter is getting very good at drawing snowmen. One of these days I'll have to get a scan or picture of his fine artistic abilities.


The 20th day of Christmas was Carter's last day of school. As I've shared he goes to the two's class at CELC and loves it. I've only had a him go a couple times a month but felt it important to let him go on this last day of the year before we move. They had a special Happy Birthday Jesus Party and his teachers gave him a special present too. We are going to miss Miss Kim and Miss Lisa very much. They have been so good to both Braden and Carter.

When Carter got home from school we also made these Santa Claus pictures with cotton balls.

The 21st day of Christmas was Braden's last day of school. His class also had a Happy Birthday Jesus party and his teachers gave him a special Christmas gift. His class did a present exchange amongst the kids and Braden was very excited that his friend Stanley had his name.

Later in the evening we delivered the cookie jars we made to our neighbors.
