All three girls had their holiday parties on the last Thursday before winter break. Paca came over the night before, and we read him "Whose Boat Is This Boat" by Donald Trump.
Matchy-matchy Thursday
4th Grade Party in Mrs. Drage's Room
2nd Grade Party in Mrs. Haselby's Room
Summer and Mika trying to shake ping pong balls out of tissue boxes strapped to their hips
Wylie and Paca leaving Bethke and headed to Paula's preschool party
In addition to the party, Paula got to celebrate her birthday that day in class, as well. The kids traced her on a giant sheet of paper and decorated it.
I was in charge of the winter party. We started with the craft.
It was supposed to go something like this:
We paused for a snowman snack made out of donuts, chocolate chips, baby carrots, and pretzels
Powdered Sugar Princess
For games, we played "Pin the Nose on Rudolph." Paula was way off and missed the poster completely! A lot of the kids got pretty turned around, making the game even more adorable.
We also played a game where we passed the jingle bells around
At the end of class, Miss Stacie read the kids a book (while Wylie played with the tools)
After school, we did this:
Whew. If that wasn't enough for one day, there was more. In the afternoon, Paula and I went together to get our hair chopped off and donated. Here is the "before" picture:

Finally, in the evening there was some time to relax . . .
. . . and eat a plate of cookies from Teresa
