Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning

Visit to Santa ....

Molly, Lily, and Edward in the Santa Train at the mall amd the girls with Santa


Liz gave Molly this amazing gingerbread kit with all kinds of candy decorations.

Molly's Christmas program...

I am sorry, my pics of the program are all lousy. Molly did a
fantastic job with her lines and singing. She will be joining the
school choir, Kingdom Kids in January.

On the last day of school Molly's class had a Christmas
breakfast prepared by some of the parents. I did not prepare,
I passed out food and ate with the kids. The above picture is Molly with
her teacher, Miss Sinke and the 3 other kids in the class. Each week the kids
memorize a bible verse and these guys all learned an extra challenge
verse for the past few weeks. The prize was reciting the verse at breakfast
and a candy treat
