Grace and I went to Lyla's class Christmas party. I was in charge of the craft. I also volunteered to do the craft for Grace's party. Crafts and games are always the last things moms volunteer to handle. No one would sign up for crafts, so at the last minute I said fine. I like to do crafts that are worth the time and effort to do. Not just a sticker page or sucker with a pipe cleaner tied around it. So, I bought little wooden picture frame ornaments for the kids to paint. It was messy and a little more difficult than most moms do, but, that's me, a little more difficult. It went fine though. The problem came when I got to Grace's party, which was right after Lyla's, I was asked if I had the salty snack. Um, no, I have the craft. This wonderful, keepsake, hand painted ornament! They sweetly told me I had also signed up for the salty snack back in August at the open house! UGH!!! So, off I ran to Walgreens to get Doritos. By the time I came back, they were almost done with their snack and the moms were already passing out the craft. In the rush I left my camera in the van so I don't have ANY pictures from Grace's party. That's the last time I do crafts for a party! Ha! Back to Lyla's party...it was good. After the painting, they played a game. They were split into four groups. Lyla was chosen, randomly, to be the tree. They decorated the tree and raced to see which team finished first. I like that party game. It's cute.
Nice picture that Lyla took... 
Lyla's little buddy, Owen Minor. He's so cute.
