On the Tuesday before Christmas we had Nick's Holiday Open House at school. The kids had different activities they could do and then we learned about Christmas in Hawaii. After the lesson, the parents got to go upstairs into the owner's house (the school is in her basement) for hors d' oeuvres (definitely had to google that for the spelling!), pastries and egg nog while the kids watched a video to learn how to do the hula dance and the limbo (in honor of celebrating Christmas like Hawaiians!) After the social hour we went back down for Christmas songs and then SANTA CAME!!! It was so much fun to see how excited the kids were. Their beaming little faces and almost uncontainable excitement. Just want to bottle it up and keep it forever!!
So studious at the elastic shape-making table!
Santa gave all the kids a very small gift (Nick got some paints) except one kid got a Leapster Explorer!! Hmmm. I guess Santa missed the memo on that one!
Nick and Mikey showing each other their loot.
Nick showing his limbo skills. Gotta work on them I guess!
