Today is the last day of school for both Payton and Sydney. They have their Christmas parties today and Sydney also has a Christmas program that we get to attend. She has been working very hard on her singing for this program.
Last night Kristi and Sydney made Christmas ornaments with her good friend Josie whom she will miss very much. They had a really good girl fun night. Earlier in the day Kristi finished packing up the kids room. Only the essentials (clothes, legos, barbies) are left. We officially have less than two weeks til we move. We are now at the point where we are going to start begging for boxes. I think I will have to visit some of the local stores to request some boxes.
Good times!
So this morning the weather station at the airport in Burns registered a low of minus 22 degreew farenheit. -22 !!! That is the coldest we have every been since moving here.
Last night was our only night this week that both Kristi and I were home. The kids put on a puppet show of Wall-e for us. Actually I think it is a sequel that they are writing. It was very cute. Payton played Wall-e and Sydney was Eve (Eva as Wall-e would say). They do have a lot to learn about puppeteering. They made their puppets out of megablocks and they didn't hide themselves entirely behind the couch which made it all the more adorable.
Kristi packed five more boxes last night. We are starting to feel nostalgic about leaving the first home that we ever bought. It has been a good home for us.
Last night was our last AWANA program. We will definitely miss the AWANA program at Faith Baptist. Our kids really enjoy coming to it and learning verses every week. In fact I am very proud of Payton, our oldest, who completed his book last night. This was his third book that he completed which means he earned a Sparky Plaque. I think he really enjoyed his last night at AWANA. A lot of the leaders we very gracious in making it an extra special night for him since the church in Ocean Park doesn't currently have an AWANA program.
While the kids and I were at AWANA Kristi packed up another seven boxes at the house. We now have a stack of boxes in our bedroom. Fortunately the stack in our bedroom matches the stack in Micah's room and in the living room so at least our boxes are color coordinated:)
