So technically it is real snow but just not a lot of it :-) The local community had a Santa/Winter theme and dumped two piles of snow. First impression for the boys? COLD!!!
Graham and Charlie's hands were freezing handling the snow. I obviously forgot the gloves!
It got a little bit slippery after a bit as the snow was being packed down by so many kids!
Some live singing of holiday music while we wait for Santa:
In the meantime, there is a train so we just HAVE to get on it:
We write our notes for Santa:
We decorate our cookies:
I don't know how Graham managed to score 3 cookies!!??!
Unfortunately, when we did get back to the line to see Santa, it was really looooong!!! Charlie was quite persistent about wanting to wait but thankfully we managed to change his mind. But that means I will have to find another Santa for Charlie before Christmas!
Earlier that day, the boys' school had their holiday sing. Unfortunately I am not able to post any photos or videos but Graham and Charlie did great! Although not exactly sure what happened to Charlie as he started to cry when his class was starting to leave the stage after their performance. He did spot me when he got onto the stage and we exchanged thumb-ups. Maybe it is still a bit overwhelming for him to be performing in front of so many people. Poor kid! I had to sit with him for a bit during snacktime before he finally calmed down. Hopefully his stage-fright will improve next year!
