Christmas Play For Papa Part 1.

Every year for CHRISTmas the kids learn a verse for Papa as their gift to him. This year they did this little play. I helped VERY little. I did the script :) It's almost word for word out of Luke 2 in the Message Bible. They practiced like crazy and all knew their lines perfectly! In the recording J accidentally said half of L's lines. This is only the 1st part. I have all of it on video but it takes forever to download so I'm going to do it in parts!! J3 is a sheep.. His ears are just around his neck.. he's a black sheep :)

Making Cookies!!

We had a blast!! We made gingerbread cookies and brought some to Great Grandpa W!! They also made him a Christmas craft.

J3's 1st cookie!!

Snow Fun.

Jed and his snow carving. I think he said it was a bird! 

This one is Levi's and it IS a snake.. :) They've also made snowmen, snow angels, and snow balls. It has been very warm this winter so they have been spending long hours outside!

The Sign On the Hospital Door :)

It's a little late but this is the sign the kids and I made for our hospital door when Baby G was born. This way people could find our room easily, not that it's hard, and the kids knew which room was ours straight away because the sign was on the door. It also was a good last minute project to keep us busy while we waited for her to appear. It's a family tree. :) I got the idea from a fellow Momys who made one with her kids. 

Griggs Family Homeschool: Christmas Party!!

The kids couldn't participate in their class 'over the phone' Christmas Party (Our only working phone has no speaker phone!) so we made our own!! We had hot chocolate and cookies, played several games of BINGO and made a craft!! Super fun Party!! Next year we might even ask some other homeschoolers to join us! This year it was sort of spur of the moment :) 

They all take turns calling out the numbers, I did the 1st game but this way they can do it themselves and they love to call out the numbers so I'd be taking away a privilege if I did it!
