Just in case you aren’t in the holiday spirit yet, here are some pictures from Trevor’s school program this week.

an overview…
Funny how I seem to blink and two weeks have gone by.
We’ve been super busy getting ready for the holidays coming up, but things seem to be kicking into high gear with this weekend.
We have the house pretty much decorated…still need to finish outside. Our roof lights are up, and our angel is in the front flowerbed (I’ll have to get a picture of that—her positioning makes her look like she is mourning the death-by-unknown-animal suffered by my favorite hydrangea ::tear::) but I haven’t been able to choose what I want to do with the porch railings or a wreath on the front door.
Trevor is going to be in the Advent pageant at church this year (like a Christmas pageant, only there is no baby Jesus because it. is. not. Christmas. yet.). That is Sunday, I am not convinced he will do anything more than stand there and make one adorable donkey/cow/sheep. That, is a silent role my son is good at.
Tuesday is Trev’s holiday program at school….he has been doing parts of whatever is a part of the program at home, so I really don’t know what to expect, but I am sure it will be fabulous given our experience so far at West Ghent. (PS, decision to send Trevor to WGS = one of the best we have ever made)
Wednesday Shane goes on leave for about 3 weeks. It will be great to have him home…but we will get to that more later.
I finished my first semester of graduate school this month. Interesting experience…very different from my accounting class experience at ODU. Ended up with a 4.0 after a perfect score in the class….amazing what happens when you care about the subject matter, eh?
I feel the need to include some cute Trev photos, for good measure…

a special prize goes to the person who correctly identifies the movie trev is watching in the above photo.
I hope that everyone’s holiday preparations and celebrations are coming along well.
