Preschool, Bowling, and More Treasure Hunts–December 21-23

On Wednesday, the festivities continued.  The kids got some fun matching pajamas in the treasure hunt, and they had fun making a candy cane.

We tried to go cross country skiing, but there was no where close that had enough snow.  Instead, some of us went shopping while others stayed home with the kids.  The kids went to Helman school to play on the playground, then warmed up with some hot chocolate when they got home.

Thursday, we had fun learning about the symbol of the Christmas tree, and then going to Grandma’s preschool to play with the preschool toys.  That night, we had a babysitter come and watch all of the kids while the adults went to the cabaret.  We didn’t get any pictures of us there, but it was a fun night listening to some fun and entertaining music, eating some delicious desserts, and enjoying the company.

Friday, we went bowling and to lunch.  The kids all love bowling, so it was fun to see them.  James and Ethan even shared a game and took turns.
