Gingerbread Program
The second grade had a Christmas program this year about a gingerbread man that ran away because he was lonely. They sang all sorts of cute songs with cute actions. It was a lot of fun to watch.
Jaxon giving his part. It was about how they should make a lot of gingerbread men so that the runaway gingerbread man wouldn't be lonely. It was a fun program and Jaxon did a great job. I must say he was the most animated child up there.

The Dentist Makes a House Call
Josh smacked his front tooth on a friend's pogo stick last summer (2008) resulting in a late night visit to the dental office for a filling and patch job. It was not pleasant. Over the last year, his tooth has been slowly turning gray and then this last Sunday I noticed a nice bubble (for lack of a better word) on his gums right over his dying tooth. I consulted the dentist (interrupting his primary class) right away and he said it was time for the tooth to come out. Knowing how busy things are at the office, the dentist suggested that he bring home some tools and take the tooth out at home. Convenient. Tonight was the big night. Josh was so brave. He was just excited for the tooth fairy to come and see him! Here is a little something to look at before you consider purchasing any child in your life a pogo stick:
Jeremy (aka the dentist) had to do some digging to get the piece of root out that had split off when it was hit by the pogo stick. Josh had done great up to this point, but this was too much for his stomach. Luckily he didn't throw-up. He felt better after lying down for a while. (Jeremy thought it was a great photo opp.)

Service Party
McKay is on the student council at his school. He is required to serve so many hours each month. He volunteers every Monday morning before school in a teacher's classroom, does peer mediation on the play ground and helps with all the school activities (food drive, walk-a-thon, the school store, etc.) All the members of the student council were able to have a "late night" at the school if they met the minimum amount of 16 service hours for the first quarter. They had pizza, treats, prizes, played games and they watched movie. I snuck in at the end of the party to shoot some pictures.
They were able to take bean bags, pillows and blankets to the school to watch the movie with. You could have worn your pajamas too, but McKay just opted to wear "comfy clothes". He had a great time celebrating with all the other members of the student council all the accomplishments they made the first quarter of the school year.
*Wouldn't have been cool to have a late night at the school when you were a kid? I would have thought it was awesome!
