Ho Ho Ho

Took the kiddos to see the most unenthusiastic Santa I've ever seen. Couldn't be bothered to even crack a smile. Bah humbug to you, sir.

My Naughty Naughty child

H was in her school's winter play past Thursday and Friday -- the Nutcracker. She had a small role as one of the Naughty Children who hide under Mother Gingerbread's skirt and then come out and sing a song. It was actually the hardest song of the play...I think...I don't know that I could have memorized it. I'm proud of her. She also sang Silver Bells with the whole cast at the end. I'll try to link the video later but for now...pictures.

Grushkin elfs

And here's a link to the disco dancing Grushkin elfs. Oh my goodness this version had us all in stitches. Even Don the Grinch cracked a smile.
