SPELC Xmas Pageant

This was Lauren's first year to be in the Xmas pageant at her school. Her class were the "angels" who got to ride in wagons through the sanctuary. She did really well, not one tear or wiggle the whole trip. Next year - singing!

Being patient in the hallway before the show.

(probably the most exciting part).

Parade of Lights

Every year since we've moved to Denver, James and I have attended Parade of Lights in downtown Denver. It's a great event (even when it's freezing) for young and old alike. This year was Lauren's first year to go and she LOVED it! Her favorite was definitely the marching bands ("musekic") and Santa at the end.

Who doesn't love a HUGE, flying Rudolph!

Thanksgiving

We had a quiet Thanksgiving this year with just the three of us. I decided to go with a premade meal with all the fixings and it came out great! Here's Lauren enjoying her first Thanksgiving at the table.

Ready to eat!

I've got my Indian hat and my spoon - now where's the turkey!?
