Shelby had her 1st Christmas program last night. She was adorable....a friend went to Miles City on Tuesday night and was able to purchase a Christmas dress for us--Shelby didn't think at Thanksgiving time that they were supposed to, so I thought I would wait. Well plans had changed a bit, and I didn't make it to Miles before the program. They did a play on diversity for the K-8 group. She got to be a Monkey...I was so proud of her. She even remembered to sit like a "lady" and not show her underwear--she was of course in the front row of the Kindergarteners (that is also why I picked white ones to wear also. Gotta think ahead) We were running slightly late (imagine that), so I totally spaced grabbing my camera-it worked out though since we sat on the wrong side and I wouldn't have been able to get very good pictures anyways. Shelby saw us in the balcony and waved several times....was pretty cute. She was pretty nervous as we were going to her classroom, but really got into the songs...she loves music. Thank goodness Alexis likes music too...she got into it by the end and was dancing a bit, but that was after the Choir and other bands before Big Sis got to go. She got antsy and she doesn't sit still for a minute unless she is sleeping, so it was interesting. Messed her whole schedule up though....we are used to eating supper between 6:30-7:00 with showers/baths right after, then cuddle time with Daddy for the night. Yeah...she was rather tired by the end. In fact we got in the house afterwards and she went straight to the fridge for her milk, then to the couch to get her pjs on....no fighting her at all..she was on a mission! She zonked right away too. I did manage to get a couple of pics when we got home of Shelby, but next year I will be putting the camera in my shoes so I don't forget it again! :-)
We are planning on heading up the the Ranch to see my folks for Christmas...as long as the weather holds out. I am really looking forward to it...we haven't done the actual Christmas Holiday with them in years.....but we may be changing things up next year as well and starting our own traditions-Shelby mentioned this year that she would like Santa to come to her house while we are there. She is smarter than I give her credit for sometimes. She is so excited to go to Papa and Grandma's though...she loves the Ranch. Then the little twerp will be turning 6 on me not long after that...my gosh! I think I will end this there, now I feel old. LOL
Hope you enjoy the pictures....just some recent ones.
