Holiday Party and Another Picture With Santa

Friday was L's Kindergarten Holiday Party. As you can see from the pictures below, it was also pajama day and the kids got to decorate gingerbread houses. Several parents (including me) came in to help out. It was a good thing because shortly after we started, one kid threw up on the floor (two times) and then another kid threw up because he saw the first kid throw up. It was a little chaotic but once we moved the gingerbread decorating outside, all was good! Good thing it was 70 degrees out that afternoon.


As if that wasn't enough excitement for one day, we went to the train park with our neighbors Friday night. In addition to the train, they had lots of festive Christmas lights, a carousel ride and Santa. We rode the train, the carousel and then had pictures taken with Santa. After going five years with no Santa pictures I now have two with the big guy this year alone! Luckily they only charged $5!
