Pre Christmas Busies

We have been so busy with getting school out of the way to enjoy Christmas this year. Since my daughter and I are traveling to Ohio this year I wanted to have all her work done for the year the week before Christmas. I think we have 1 section in math to do and the test and we will be done!

We will be enjoying The Nutcracker ballet tomorrow. We enjoy doing this every year. We first started going when she was in 2nd grade. She had won tickets to the Birmingham Ballet's performance from a coloring contest. The next year we were able to see the Alabama Ballet's performance of it and really enjoyed it better. So since then we have made it a tradition to go see the Alabama Ballet's performance. It is 1 of 6 ballet companies in the world that perform George Balenshen's version (sp) This is awesome to have it here in our backyard!

We will also be having dinner with some friends of ours at Red Robin on Friday night. My daughter is so excited about this. Her "best friend" is going. We also have a funeral to attend this week. My daughters friend lost his grandmother this past weekend. It is so hard here at Christmas to lose a loved one. On Saturday I get my grandson. He is spending the night with us and going to church with us on Sunday and then to my husbands family Christmas party with us. Most of them don't even know that we have a grandson. It will be very interesting since he is 15 months old.

Well Merry Christmas everyone if I dont get back on here before then. And no I do not say Happy Holidays. Christ is the center of the season and it always will be in my heart.
