preschool Christmas program

Just before their break, Benjamin's preschool had a Christmas program. They sang songs, recited little poems, and made adorable star hats! The afternoon ended with cookies and other tasty treats. The kids were adorable and Benjamin did a great job with all the songs!

Lucas-Endert Christmas

 Just before Christmas we got together with Tim's family and their close friends for a Christmas dinner. It was a great night!

 Benjamin, reading to Elle and Noah. Cute!

NC comes to CA!

 At the beginning of December, our friend Tracy came to visit! (Well, she was here for work, but stayed for fun with us!)

 

Then, as luck would have it, Todd and Laura were in town as well!

It was great to see our friends, and Benjamin loved it too!

I love Christmas: the decorations, the food, the aromas...and I also love making my children dress like reindeer. :)
