Rudolph

We took the kids to see the first stage production of the old school claymation holiday movie of Rudolph at our own Adventure Theatre- It was so much fun. It was Bennett's first full length play and he sat through it, captivated.



(that is bennett's new 'cheese')


and Madeline learned the words to Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, see:

snow

recital

just remembered to post these from last month
the pics dont do justice to the experience of it all
mostly- fingers up the nose, staring into space and generally not following
the ballet teacher's instructions whatsoever.
Then they let the little brothers get up and dance too
it was a blast!

santa sightings and christmas cheer

HOME!

too bad we were in the emergency medical center later that night- who knew you could Become allergic to Pine trees- poor madeline...

but we got the house done and were happy with the results

Then.. madeline and i took a 4 hour road trip to see the Clark crew:
5 star hotel brunch with uncle deedge and family! Complete with lifesized gingerbread house!



check out the ingredients in that house- 400 lbs of icing...!
Getting to see White Christmas and meet the cast afterward with Deedge's castmates- priceless.

.

Santa rescues a stranded driver at the mall- grabs his jumper cables and his 'my boss is jesus' cap and lends a hand!

Santa shows up at storytime!





what a great santa- he recited the Grinch story by heart!

busy week

We got to go see our friend's broadway debut (ok so its the broadway national tour).
Jill calls us at 6:30 to let us know she is surprising him at his Rock of Ages Premiere and we head up to Baltimore STAT. Here she is applauding him at curtain call!
And of course, me with Zygo, posing with Constantine.



Took madeline on our date night
out to dessert and an impromptu christmas celebration in town square.

And ironically,
Here you see Madeline celebrated Hannukah with us tonight. She set the table herself!



and spent some qt with our son too!



Madeline put him on the potty and gave him an ottoman :)
