Belated Posts: The Ward Christmas Party

I know it isn't the Christmas season anymore, but as I'm going through pictures, I find funny ones and just have to share.


We have a great ward and every year we have a great Christmas party. This year the primary did the nativity -- you can see Ellie as a beautiful angel just to the left of the star. (If you click on the picture you can probably see her a lot better).





My favorite moment of the evening, however, was the nursery's production of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." Each child had a tone bell with a color coordinated smock so they could remember what their color was. The teachers made cards they would point to so the kids would know when to ring their bell. The kids practiced for weeks, but when it came down to their moment, they all simply rang their bells the whole time. All except Nico. He had no bell. He had a glowing light saber, which his teacher gave to him because he refused to go on stage with a bell.

Happy BELATED birthday!! I meant to say "Happy Birthday" yesterday, but once again I am lame and I didn't. So...I hope you had a great day and ate some leftover jello salad. After all, you deserve the very best.

PS- I am going to copy that twinkle twinkle idea for next year. Very cute.
