Preschool Tree Party


Well We got there and Teacher Gina had all of these little tiny fake trees. We had to gather as a family and each decorate one of them. Then on Monday and Tuesday, the last days of school for the year, the kids are going to walk in a line over to the Senior Center next door to the school and give them the trees we all made. Last time they went to the Senior Center they read books to the Seniors, supposedly. It all went fine for Spencer and the elderly lady he was paired with. She found him charming, but then, in his usual exuberance he went to hug her goodbye and almost knocked her over.

At the party there were cookies and cider and I guess it was okay Not as fun as we thought, and they did not give us parents our secret presents yet. I did get to meet a lot more of the moms and dads though, and Bill also knows all of the kids, and he was pointing them out to me, but honeslty they all started to blend together after a while.

I could NEVER do what Bill does volunteering at that preschool. Everyone is really nice but everything in there is really small - the chairs the stuff all kinds of potential messes to clean up. I would CONSTANTLY be worried about the messes and the chaos. I don't know how anyone works with that many kids on one room. I would throw myself in front of a bus.

Then tomorrow we were supposed to go to Travis's (my friend Siri's son) annual Toddler Holiday Party. Its always fun and there is just kid food and favors and they make ornaments and stuff and everyone has so much fun. BUT Travis is not feeling well and so it has been postponed til Jan 5


I have to work from 11 - 3 but then after this I am off til Tuesday and then I think I will work only til Friday and then I'm off tile after New years probably.

Today we had a conference call with our attorney Herb ( Robin to Joel's Batman) and we went over the contracts and stuff. The house and its evirons are all COMPLETELY EMPTY and as soon as we can we are ready to tear down. I cannot WAIT.


Over the break I plan to do a few things.. I would like for one day for us to go to that Evergreen Aviation Museum, that houses the SPRUCE GOOSE airplane. its a plane that was built by Howard Hughes and it is made out wood I guess. Also we are going to see a couple of movies.. we are going to get a sitter and have her watch both Spencer and Travis and then Steve and Siri and Bil & I are gonnna go see that move "WALK HARD the DEWEY COX STORY" It looks hilarious. I also would like to see Charlie Wilson's War.

However no big plans other than this kind of stuff. Just hang with the goat. I guess. WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR CHRISTMAS:??
