the home stretch

It was a festive week counting down until Christmas break!


On Tuesday night Emmy helped introduce the 2nd grade play at school and then played her recital piece on the piano again.  We got home from the show just in time to catch Santa on the fire truck!


Bryce's school had tropical day for one of their spirit days.  I'm certain bathing suits were not the school's idea of tropical wear, but it was a teenage battle I wasn't fighting that day!


Friday was pj and party day for Emmy!


Friday was crazy sock and Santa hat day for Bryce.


Both kids went to birthday parties on Saturday.  Emmy went to an indoor swimming luau party and Bryce went to a paintball party with his baseball team.


We headed to Kings Dominion for Winterfest on Saturday night.


It was cold and crowded but we enjoyed a few rides, a tasty treat and of course the decorations!



Emmy lit the advent candle at church and her class sang a song on stage. 


Sunday night youth group was fun.  The kids were in two teams and had to wrap a teammate and put them under the tree.  Somehow Emmy and Bryce ended up getting wrapped.


The kids drew numbers to make their teams and Bryce ended up on a team of all girls and Emmy ended up on a team of all boys!


It was hilarious to watch.  


They were a little hot afterwards!


We wrapped up the weekend with a game of Mechanicsville-opoly!
