Providence Christmas

Our neighborhood has a tree-lighting ceremony every year. We missed the lighting this year because Jacob was singing Christmas carols with his class. But we did make it back in time to meet one of Santa's reindeer and Santa himself! (We would have gone on one of the horse-drawn carriage rides, but it was an hour wait!) Oh and Jacob wanted me to let everyone know that he took the picture of Vixen!

Jordan's Christmas Recital

Now that I can finally post pictures again, I'm back! Jordan had her 2nd dance recital in December. Her class was dressed up as Christmas mice. They were soooo cute! The dance was adorable as always and this year her teacher did a dance. It was to Christmas canon and it was beautiful. They ended the recital with a surprise visit from Santa. Jordan could not keep her eyes off of him. She wouldn't sit in his lap, but she did not want to leave where he was sitting! I can't wait for her next recital! She gets to move up classes. She will now be in Pre-Ballet/Tap. She is going to LOVE wearing those tap shoes!!

Family Pictures

We finally got around to taking family pictures. The last time was 2005 so I figured it was time. Instead of doing in studio, we opted for a location shoot. We went to Legacy Park over by Stonebriar Mall. It was a beautiful area for pictures. The kids were all excited, I thought we'd be getting some great family pics! Boy... was I kidding myself! I mean, we did get some decent ones of us, lots of great ones of the kids, but I was hoping for that one great one to give to everyone. Out of the 734 pictures that were taken, I think 650 of them had either Jacob's or Jordan's tongues hanging out of their mouth! Little stinkers! I finally had to convince myself that they are 2 & 4 and that hey, that's my family! I have goofball kids and I wouldn't trade them for anything!!

Halloween

This year the kiddos decided to be Cinderella, aka "Tindalella", and Superman. They had a blast trick or treating around the neighborhood! Jacob is already making plans for next year!

School Days

It's been a while since I've posted. Things have been busy since school has started back. Jacob LOVES school and is happiest when he is there! He loves his friends, his teachers, especially learning new things! He's definately my academic kiddo! Jordan loves her friends, her teachers and is definately at school to socialize! She can never tell you what she learned but she can tell you who she played with and what they did! Jacob, on the otherhand, will go into detail about what he's learned. They are so different when it comes to school, but I love listening to both of them!
