Class "Holiday" Parties

Eden and I spent the day at school today to attend and help with any school parties. Lots of people, lots of chaos, lots of sugar.

I am Hannah's class party mom!! We had a Christmas tree piñata, ice cream sundaes, games and really loud music (I forgot the Christmas music). I am trying to get kicked off of the party planning committee buy having a Christmas tree piñata and playing Christmas music. It's one of my irritations with the school system. Why can every other religious holiday be celebrated and talked about except those that revolve around Christ? Although I think it is pretty wishful thinking on my part, no one else wants to do this job!

Peter had a quiet party of doing crafts and eating food. We brought "the best" (thank you Alan and Peter) chocolate chip cookies that I have ever made.

Joseph also had a quieter party with food, crafts, and games. We brought in an easy craft of candy cane reindeer, and really yummy grapes!

It's so funny to me how excited the kids get just to bring something in for their parties. They tell their little friends, "Oh, I brought the grapes, there really good huh?!"

Of course I forgot the camera so no cute pictures were taken of the kids with their friends and classmates. Maybe next time I will remember. One can always hope!
