Today was Evelyn's school Christmas party. The whole school attended Christmas chapel together (parents were invited to chapel but Jameson and I stayed home. I thought it was asking a lot of him to sit through chapel and then be well behaved during the classroom party).
After chapel it was the preschool's turn to shop for presents at the Christmas shop. Evelyn bought a few items and managed to stay within her budget. Then it was back to the classroom for a craft. The kids made snow globes out of baby food jars using salt, glitter, and baby oil. Once all the glitter was cleaned up, every student got two sugar cookies to decorate.
Then we walked around the church, handing out cookies to various teachers, staff, and pastors. Here's Mrs. Smith the principal receiving her cookies.
Next up was a "snowball" fight in the gym followed by one last craft - candy cane ornaments made with pipe cleaners and pony beads. It was a full morning. Jameson loved just being able to play in Evelyn's classroom but when we walked around the church or played in the gym, he was right there with all the other kids, just like he was in preschool too.
