Christmas program at school

Tonight was Karsten's Christmas program at school.  He's been telling us all about the songs he's learning, but he didn't want to show us and spoil the program.  We promised we would still enjoy the program even if he shared the songs ahead of time, but he wasn't convinced.

Doors for the program opened at 5:30pm, and there was a line to get in!  Lucily, I had gotten the scoop from another mom, so we were in line by 5:30pm so we could get a good seat. By 5:40, it was FULL and the program didn't begin until 6pm!

Luckily, we had Grandma and Papa to keep Liam busy.  They played checkers on their phone and he did his new water painting book.


The Kindergarteners waited paitently while the second and first graders did their program.  They were all pretty adorable.  Karsten is in the middle of this picture, just to the right of the teacher's head in the back row.


They had actions to go with all of the songs - the teacher did a great job teaching them the songs and all of the actions!




So much cuteness!


And, so you can feel like you were there - here is video of one of their songs.



I wasn't able to get a picture of him at school, there was too much going on, so I snapped a quick one in front of the tree before we got ready for bed.


When Karsten went to bed, he said his tummy hurt, but we didn't think too much of it.  Unfortunately, he was up from 2-5am sick.  :(  At least he wasn't sick earlier in the day and was able to participate in his program.  He stayed home from school on Friday but seemed to be feeling better by late in the day.  I am TIRED of winter germs.
