Christmas Party.......finally!






I know, I know.....it's already the middle of January and I am again behind on blogging (actually I have tried to get this post posted several times and having trouble with pictures, so trying it using my phone).  Maybe I should make a New Year's Resolution to keep up on blogging......or not!  Sorry, but sometimes I just have other priorities......like children, cleaning, cooking, laundry, etc!

Anyway, we had a Christmas Party right before Christmas break.......it was a morning of food, games, crafts and of course presents!


Aren't they the cutest?!?!












The big kiddos got marshmallow shooters.....these were fun to make and I think they really loved them! Sorry, parents, if you weren't as thrilled! 




We played several rounds of pass the candy cane.  I was kind of surprised how well the little ones did at hooking their candy cane on and passing it to the next person. 





















I decided this year to not stress out about all the little details......I mean, after all, this is for the kids and what they want. 
So, I made a basic round chocolate cake and told them they could decorate it however they wanted......this was our birthday cake for Jesus!
And they got to work. 












They even picked out the candles......they were to go around the J for Jesus!





Blowing out the candles!  We sang to Jesus as well, but I couldn't get my video loaded.









This was our manger craft we did.....M is for Manger! We used craft sticks and colored brown and cut up a paper sack for the hay. 


Our lunch and dessert! 






We all had such a fun morning! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
