Christmas is almost here!

What an exciting time of year...Christmas is only a few days away.  All the presents are bought & wrapped, all waiting under the tree.  Rachael has school tomorrow & Thursday & then she is done. It is so strange weather wise though...no snow!  The meteorologists say we've got a pretty quiet weather system too, looks like we might be stuck with a brown Christmas.  The kids are anxious & excited for Christmas Eve to finally be here!  

Yesterday in school the kids had a reindeer parade.  The Kindergarten classes put on their handmade reindeer antlers & marched through the school.  The Upper Academy loved it & thought the kids were too cute :)

Today Rachael was coming down the stairs from Spanish with her class, when somehow she tripped & tumbled down half the flight of stairs, hitting her head.  She was crying pretty hard & had to go to the office to get ice.  She was upset when we came to pick her up today & said she had a headache.  She seems to be alright this afternoon, but say a prayer that she doesn't deal with a migraine again.

Tonight I am going to the play Cinderella at the Ordway Theatre with one of my best friends.  She got the tickets for my birthday present, and boy am I excited.  It will be a nice adult evening, something I don't get very often!
