The Nutcracker 2018

Maisy's 4th year in the Nutcracker! This year she was a party girl, angel and clown. I love watching her dance! Such a beautiful Christmas tradition. (I was on the side of the stage helping, so I don't have any photos of the performance from the viewpoint of the audience.)

Holiday Happenings 2018

Guess who was a shepherd in the ‘live nativity’ at the Whites Chapel Church Christmas Festival tonight??? Maisy loved performing three times- and had a lot to tell me about the ‘behind the scenes’ antics with the animals 🤣. The baby goats cry a lot, that chicken is a bit pecky, and the bunny was sweet. Afton and her friend Sarah enjoyed all the carnival rides in between shows. And we ended the night with some pretty spectacular fireworks. We all left feeling ‘warm and fuzzy’ with Christmas spirit. 

Thanksgiving 2018

We decided to get out of town for Thanksgiving this year. Our goal-- to spend Thanksgiving with Jeff's grandparents. Since the girls had the entire week off of school, we stretched out the drive and had some adventures along the way. 

Day 1-On our Southern Road Trip! Saturday we drive to Vicksburg, MS. We spent a long time touring the battle grounds and learning about the Civil War. We ate lots of gumbo & pot boys too. We spent the night in Jackson and ate at “Fine & Dandy” 😋. 

School Daze

Afton and Maisy are doing really well in school this year. Afton was invited to represent CTMS at the school board meeting.
