The rest of Advent went pretty well. We got to go to a party for our cover school, which ended up featuring roller skating. This was the first time on roller skates for both children. Ted loved it, Maddy didn’t quite. Those big heavy boots were a bit too much for her. The party was very nice, though the kids melted down at the end because they didn’t want to leave.
We got to visit the lights display at our Botanical Gardens one night as a family. It was impromptu, and a lot of fun. Daddy was on a lot of business trips, so one night when he ended up working late and we had to pick him up (his car was being serviced) we just decided to go and have a fun night. Beautiful displays. Ted especially enjoyed it.
We finished the first math workbook but not the phonics one. That’s okay; it’s been slower going.
Maddy had her birthday and had a blast; she loved Bitty Baby’s new birthday outfit and all the other gifts she received. Some were at Christmas, since we doubled up holidays a bit.
Overall the holidays were pretty good. Lots of family, lots of presents, lots of yummy treats. Ted and I both went to the Christmas Eve service at church. He did very well holding his candle, till the wax dripped on him. He gave it to me after that. :)
