Visit With Santa 2009-Part 2

Since Jarrett wouldn't get his picture taken with Santa I decided to try to get his picture by the tree. This is about as good as it gets.
As if that wasn't challenging enough, I tried to get them to both stand in front of the tree. This was the first picture I took.

They kept running away so Sara tried to help me.
This was the last picture I took. Never mind.

Visit With Santa 2009-Part 1

We went to Cheri's Bakery again this year to see Santa. We also enjoyed some yummy treats! Jarrett was more interested in the cookies than Santa.
This is the closest Jackson got to Santa. We couldn't even get Jarrett to do this.
Chris wasn't afraid of Santa.
He and Chris discussed what he wanted for Christmas. He requested some sort of electronics.
Then he showed Santa how to dance.

More Christmas

Special thanks to Mary for taking care of us while we were sick and taking care of the boys. Jackson and Mary were fast friends.
Walter and Chris were the only other kids there. If you can still call them kids.
Mary showed Jack how to play the drums on pots and Tupperware. He enjoyed being allowed to drag everything out of the cabinets. I'm sure his Grandma was smiling down on him.

Christmas with Thomas

For Christmas Matt made the boys a table so they could have a place to play trains. To say that they love it would be an understatement. We found Thomas stickers to put on the table so it looks like a train table. The top of it is actually a wall mural but it works well on the table. I turned the picture so that the mural is right side up.
Somehow we ended up with 4 different kinds of Thomas track (how does that work? not very well) so we improvised. Jarrett had a buyers guide from one of the boxes with every possible Thomas thing you could buy. He called it a "map" and kept telling us we were putting the track together wrong. We kept on trying to get the best layout possible and Jarrett just went back up stairs. He eventually came back downstairs.
They also got Little Einstein, WonderPets and McQueen toys. Just an FYI for Julie- yes, we took down the scrapbooking table. Sorry.

Jackson's Christmas Program

Jackson's program was VERY cute. his class dressed as elves and sang (I use that term loosely) with the 2 year old class. They shook jingle bells, jumped up and down and danced. Jackson ended up with 2 sets of bells. I think he was the best bell player there.
He was really funny to watch. He wandered around the stage and almost walked off of it a few times. I think there were at least 6 adults on stage and 4 in front of the stage making sure no one fell off.
They were all very sweet but I think he was the cutest one there.

Jarrett's Christmas Program

Jarrett had his Christmas program today. He had to be persuaded to join his class and seemed to be doing well waiting with his friends.
He was looking at the playground outside and wanted to go and play. I told him if he went out and sang with his class then he could play in the playground.
He said ok. We lined up last and followed everyone else to the stage. Here is his class on stage.Do you see Jarrett? No? He decided not to sing. He didn't even want his picture taken. Oh well. He wasn't the only one who didn't want to participate.
He was still the cutest one there.

Visit With Santa

This morning we went to Cheri's Bakery and saw Santa. Jarrett didn't want to see Santa, he just wanted to eat the cookies and pretzels. He didn't even want me to take his picture.He did eventually take his hands off his face. Jackson wasn't too sure about him either but we were able to get him to sit long enough to take his picture.
When we first set him down he looked at Santa as if to say, "Who the heck are you?" Chris didn't want to sit on Santa's lap. Chicken.
