12-19-19 Instead of a 5th grade party, we had a Winter Wonderland and pajamas! The kids rotated to all 4 rooms. They had a paper snowball fight, decorated cookies and drank hot chocolate, made slime, and "built" a snowman as well as played winter Kahoot!!!! Then we finished the day with a pizza lunch! It was a really fun day!
12-20-19 We had movie and board game day at school! Then Miles came over to play for the afternoon. Finally, Jacen and I played Pokemon on the way home from dropping Miles off at his house!
12-21-19 Star Wars at Alamo!!!! A pic with Jacen and a paper stocking he decorated after school one day! Then we ended the day with pizza, ice cream, and game night!!!
12-22-19 My friend Laura and family were in town for a wedding, so they met us at Pie Bar to eat dessert and visit!!!!
12-23-19 The tooth fairy came!!!! Jacen opened his gifts from Grandpa and Mimi!!! We went to the cemetery to leave a tree at Nathan's grave. Then we stopped at Pie Bar!!!
12-24-19 Christmas Eve - We played Hedbanz and Disney Monopoly!!! Then we went to the Candlelight Service at church. Then it was time for Hot Chocolate and Christmas lights! Then we hid clues for the Christmas scavenger hunts for the next morning as well as sat out cookies and milk for Santa. We ended the evening with reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas".
12-25-19 Christmas Day - We started the morning seeing the tooth fairy came!!! Then it was time for stockings! I love Jacen's facial expressions! Next it was time for the scavenger hunts to find our Christmas presents. Jacen wanted us each to do a scavenger hunt to find our presents, so Pinterest to the rescue!!! It was a lot of fun!!!! For Jacen's gifts we do 4 gifts. Something you want (money), something you need (pants), something to wear (Frenship pullover), and something to read (Uncle Scrooge graphic novels). Then we had breakfast and watched Charlie Brown Christmas! Then we read the Christmas Story!!!!
Jacen wanted money from everyone for Christmas because he wanted a Nintendo Switch. We figured with all the family he asked that he would end up with enough money, so we went ahead and ordered it. That way if he did get enough money he could have it before we left on our Disney cruise. So these next photos are of him finding the Nintendo Switch and giving Daddy the money he had gotten for it.
Then it was time for lunch while watching Elf!!! Then during the afternoon Daddy and Jacen played the Nintendo Switch!!! We had a great day!
