4 Generations with Santa...

You know how at every young kid's concert there is one kid belting it out over everyone else. Yep, that was Madi today at her JK concert. There was 2 JK classes - probably about 40+ kids and the one voice you could hear over everything else was Miss Madison. She is in her glory performing. She sat beside her best friend Elayna who would yell "Hi Krista" to me (I was at the back of the gym) everytime they stopped singing. It was a really cute morning. Madi and Elayna really out performed everyone - what a pair!

Madi and Elayna belting it out (Watch the girl to the right of Madi in the pink shirt and blonde hair - she reminds me so much of Paige!)


What a face! Our very own Drama Queen!


Did I mention she was VERY loud?


Elayna and Madi are the only ones with the moves...





And Elayna yelling "Hi" to me for the 100th time.

Noah's mom (Madi's buddy Noah from her class - who you might remember wrote her love notes saying "I heart U") was telling me about a conversation she had with Noah yesterday. They were talking about marriage and she told him when he grows up he might find someone he wants to marry....

Noah - I already found her mom.

Mom - Who is it?

Noah - Madison. I just can't stop thinking about her.

Mom - What do you think about her?

Noah - About marrying her.

Too cute. Kindergarten romance. Today they played Batman and Spider girl. Destiny...

Here is Madi's letter she dictated to me to type for Santa....

So, Madi just came strolling into the kitchen trying to act like nothing was wrong and she was ready for school. Glad I looked at her face - she got into my lipstick!

It seems like a lifetime ago now, but it was just over a week that we ran the 5K Santa Shuffle. Just found these pics on Mark's camera....

 

 

Yesterday I had a wedding and Mark came as my assistant for the first time. I was only booked until 5pm and since we had a babysitter (thanks Marcie!) we decided we'd celebrate our anniversary after wards. Well, we went out for a nice dinner at Izzy's and then Mark surprised me with tickets to the Nutcracker!! It was GREAT! I love the nutcracker - and how each time you see it, it is different. The last time we Saw it they had it set at DUndurn castle here in Hamilton which was fun. It was stunning last night, the costumes, set, dancing and of course the music - was great!  They had added a bit of humour (like a drunk maid) last night that was a fun twist.

I love seeing all the little girls in their beautiful Christmas dresses. They are all yatteirng away before it starts and then that music starts up and it's so quiet as all the little girls are mesmerized. I love it.

Anyhow, it was a fun day and a great night!
