Meri Alan's Christmas Party

My friend, Judith, sent me some more cute pics of Meri Alan. Here she is at her class Christmas party yesterday afternoon. We are so happy it's Christmas vacation time!!

Nutcracker 2010

Meri Alan loved being in the Nutcracker for the first time. She can't wait for next year!

She was a great angel. Sara Frances always looks forward to the Nutcracker and loved being a soldier and a Russian dancer. Great job!!

Meri Alan's First Piano Trophy

We are so proud of Meri Alan for earning her first piano trophy today.

Our Joyner Joey

We were so proud to attend Joyner Junction this past Friday to watch Meri Alan receive a Joyner Joey award for staying on the right track! Way to go, Meri Alan. The picture above is taken with my phone. I had spent the morning at the Nutcracker school show with Sara Frances and realized that my camera battery wasn't in my camera. Luckily I am blessed to have a friend who is a FABULOUS photographer and her grandson, Jacob, was also a Joyner Joey. I was so excited today when Judith emailed me these pictures. I love them and am very thankful she took them.

The first grade entertained by singing Christmas songs.

Christmas Tree Farm

Meri Alan's class had a cold day today for the Christmas Tree farm in Hernando. She had a ball!! I was thankful to Kenneth for going with her today. She loved going to a Christmas Tree farm for the first time.
