Christmas Programs & Christmas!

The last few weeks have been filled with Christmas programs. The first was her dance class program, then her preschool program and then her Sunday school program. All of which she really enjoyed :)

The look on Gretta's face when she saw her sister enter the chapel at the preschool Christmas program. The look of pure joy.



The look on Mari's face when she spotted her sister sitting in the audience of her Sunday school Christmas program. The look of pure joy!

What a sweet angel. She did a wonderful job singing all the songs & listening to her teachers.
Then the real fun began-celebrating 5 Christmases! The first Christmas was celebrated at Sydna folks' home, then off to Minot to celebrate w/Grandpa Dave's family. Christmas #3 was at our home in Aberdeen then off to Sioux Falls. Christmases #4 & #5 were celebrated at Grandma Sandy's & Grandpa Loren's.

Mari & Ben were 2 peas in pod that night. Where there was one there was the other. They even had to sit on the same side of the dinner table. :)
Mari sitting next to her gift from Santa, her favorite gift. A life size dog, Biscuit, that obeys 6 commands. That is 6 more than Copper!!!
Gretta figuring out the gift wrap on a present. Someone is enjoying the holidays!
We are attempting to get a picture of the great grandkids. Gretta's window for this event was short. The photo taken right after this one is of her walking away. We have had a nice Christmas season. Thank you to all that made that enriched our holidays.
