The Nutcracker

Jerusha was really great this Christmas about making it special for the girls. While I was busy with finals and she was sick she somehow found the time to do Joy School, take the girls to the Nutcracker, put up and decorate a tree, and do countless other things like helping Amelia make her Christmas wish list.

If you were wondering, she wanted a ducky, two picture frames in the shape of a heart, a piggy bank, a crocadile, a princess Aurora doll, and a turtle. She got everything but the turtle, and if anyone knows where you can get one cheap let me know.

Here are some pictures of the Joy School girls at the Nutcracker.

Pre-Christmas fun

Here are some pictures of the Amelia and Isabelle at their Joy School Christmas Program. It was really great. Amelia was able to show off some of her moves she's been learning in her dance class, and she played the angel in the nativity reenactment. Isabelle played a very surly inn keeper; when she says, "NO ROOM!", she means it.
