December 6th...

The snow looks so pretty outside. The flakes are falling and they are so fat. And I'm clearly putting a spin on the story because it's holiday time. In fact, I loathe snow. And I'm not totally ready for snow yet. Yes, it has been snowing for a week now. No, I'm still not prepared. I walk out every day without gloves and a scarf. I'd like to get Kyle clips for his gloves because we are already on pair number 4.

I forgot to mention anything about Caleb's Friday night.  The Spanish Club dinner was Friday.  Andrew missed it because of a birthday sleepover.  I sat with some crazy friends while the kids all ordered in Spanish.  Caleb told me he'd teach me how to order and generally speak in Spanish and I am a German girl so I was panic-stricken.  Needless to say I dodged the bullet and sat in my own corner and all was well in my English speaking world.

After dinner, I drove Caleb and a friend to the dance.  There was a photo booth set up as a fundraiser and it was such a great idea.  The kids all had fun.

After work, I attended the women's potluck at church.  I was hesitant to sign up at first.  I was intrigued, but thought it would be me and most of the older population of women.  For whatever reason I couldn't stop thinking about it.  I decided to check out the sign up sheet and noticed a small group of younger women and decided to go for it.  Inadvertently I talked Christine into going as well.  Bonus.  I had to bring Kyle with me and he stayed about 15 minutes while waiting for K to get back from work. {dang job}  It was a nice time of food, fellowship and fun.  After dinner we sang a bunch of Christmas carols {my fave} and went home.  A nice evening indeed.  So glad I went.
