Isabelle's school concert was tonight. The school had planned for the grades to perform their songs on the back of a truck instead of being stuck inside a gymnasium. It turned out quite nicely too and they all performed wonderfully well. I always love watching the preps perform when they are up there too, they were adorable as always and really got into the swing of things. Isabelle is in the white t-shirt introducing the class song along with one of her favourite friends in the black outfit. Can you see the Santa dashing across - she did a great job too. I even made the chimney in class today as the teacher wasnt going to make any props for the song and since they were singing "Santa Got Stuck In The Chimney" I thought it would be a good idea and I even surprised myself with how well it turned out. Even the art teacher was impressed with my efforts! I havent made any props before so maybe I've discovered a hidden talent, lol!
Knitting news - still knitting my mini dishcloths, nearly finished them up. I can then start my xmas ornament and post them all off on Monday. I have nearly finished the pink jacket. I really MUST finish my sister's jacket or I wont have a birthday pressie for her and I really want this one to turn out nicely since she appreciates my knitted presents so much.
I have posted off my xmas cards, just a few left to do and then they are all done.
We have a family xmas party on Sunday at Paul's grandmother's house which is going to be a bbq. I am making a big dish of scalloped potatoes to have as a side dish too. I think I might have to make 2 trays though to feed everyone. She has all her kids, grandkids and great grandkids so it ends up being about 40 people! Lots of fun though as they are a very happy bunch. Okay off to knit a little bit tonight and relax ...... finally!
