Jake's Christmas Catechesis for Classical Conversations was on Friday. His class decided to show their memory work skills dressed up like the 12 tribes of Israel. We had a reception after (that I helped decorate for and had fun...but no pictures of...another mom is supposed to email them to me but if she is like me she may forget.) and Jake went to a slumber party after at his friend Carter's house. We don't do sleep overs very often but felt good about this group of boys and the hosting parents. It ended up being 6 boys having Nerf gun wars and watching Elf until 1:30 in the morning. In case you can't tell from the one and only picture that came out before my camera went to sleep...Jake is the 4th from the right. Just in case we really want to remember everyone in Jake's class in 30 years: Left to right Catherine, Adrienne, Connie, Cloe, Emily, Sara, Jake, Carter, Gabe, and Mr. Mills.
On Monday night Erin had the great idea of decorating some Christmas cookies. They were fun to make and to eat! I took lots of pictures on Erin's phone so I will get them and post more later. Without charging the batteries (even after they died on Friday night...) my camera allowed me this one photo of Jake, Nana, and Erin cutting the cookies. I told you my camera loves me. :)
