We Had A Merry Christmas!
Russell is home for Christmas and we have been enjoying our time together! We did our usual Christmas Eve drive through Deming park to see the light displays. We had a great Christmas morning and spent the day playing with our gifts. Hope you had an equally wonderful Christmas!

My Baby? Nope!
Rion is officially a teenager. He celebrated his 13th birthday on Sunday! He is a great young man who has a bright future ahead of him. We are excited to see the plans God has for him unfold!

Christmas Celebrations
Darec had his orchestra concert on Wednesday and Rion had his band concert on Thursday. They play the viola and baritone. It was wonderful to hear some Christmas music and get into the holiday spirit! They both did a fabulous job.
Thursday afternoon, Brenden's AP English 12 class hosted a Christmas party for their parents. It was rather dark in the library, to set the mood of course, so the picture isn't great.
We ate and watched the class entertain us with Christmas-themed performances. I don't know why I forgot to take pictures during the entertainment. Ugh! Brenden was Charlie Brown in a skit and he sang Spanish Christmas Carols along with three classmates. It was a lovely time!

Senior Banner
The senior athletes get banners made for them. Brenden's wrestling banner is finished and was hanging at the first home meet yesterday. They also made "singlet" posters for each wrestler. It is another one of those strange moments when I realize my son is almost done with high school. Crazy!

First Match...Pin!
Brenden wrestled his first match, at Evansville Reitz, over the weekend. It is about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Terre Haute. Russell is back in Aiken, after a lovely Thanksgiving spent together, so I drove the kids down to the meet. It was worth the drive to see Brenden get his first pin of the season!
The meet lasted quite a while, from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Jerrod ran the team's video camera for them the entire day. Between matches, Darec and Rion spent their time reading!
