Christmas Program and Parties


We kicked off the Christmas whirlwind with Shadowbrook's Christmas program followed by the boys' school Christmas parties.
Shadowbrook
Since Caden is older, the 4's and Kindergarten have an evening program instead of a daytime program like the younger kiddos.
He looked so handsome!
He wasn't into singing very much but he loved using the bells when they sang Jingle Bells and the maracas when they sang Feliz Navidad...maybe he'll be a percussionist like his Dad????
 He kept looking our way during the program :-)
 At the end of the program, the kindergarten class performs the Nativity. Ethan did this last year and was a shepherd. Super sweet to see the little ones participating in this!
 When the program was over, Ethan and I went to pick up Caden in his classroom so we had to have a picture, of course! I love these ladies so very much for the love and attention they have given to both of our boys!
Ethan's Party 
The next day was Ethan's Christmas party in his classroom. There were several stations set up for the kiddos to rotate through. They made a snowglobe, reindeer food, decorated sugar cookies, and made an ornament. Sadly, I didn't get too many pictures because I was running a station :-(
 
 Reindeer food was super important this year, we even had to sprinkle it in the rain!
 Then it was treat time! He had a super fun party with his friends!
Caden's Party 
The day after Ethan's party was Caden's class party. He had a super cute party as well!
 I love little friendships!
 Their first activity was a nativity scavenger hunt. Cute!
 Then cupcakes
Followed by "Tree" decorating...SUPER cute idea!
 Making beaded candy canes
 A Nativity ornament
 A beautiful frosted mason jar nativity candle
 Followed by presents!
A wonderful time was had by all! Such a crazy busy super fun week!
