This year Kenna has opted to give a whirl at playing the viola at school. I love that she is willing to give it a go. I am absolutely no help with learning to play an instrument, but hope that she can learn to enjoy it and keep up with it.
Here she is at her first orchestra concert. Considering they are first-year students, they actually did pretty darn good. Hello there maestro!
The week before Christmas each of the kids had a sing-a-long at the school. They each were so cute and fun to watch.
Allie with the 4th grade:
Kenna and the 5th grade:
I have to be honest though, I think Ty and the first graders take the cake. It was so adorable!
We had an Israelsen Christmas party that was a ton of fun, complete with a cousin nativity. Kenna is Mary, Ty is Joseph, Allie is a shepherd, Lexi and Kai are angels, Tate is the best baby Jesus EVER, and of course Oakley is directing the whole scene. She later decided Tate had a pretty good little seat and wanted to take over the manger.
The two little angels, Lexi and Kai:
The most PERFECT baby Jesus, Tate. He seriously is the cutest little pa-tuty ever!
We headed back to the Israelsens on Christmas Eve for some delicious soup and cinnamon rolls. Here is Grandpa Israelsen with his oldest and youngest grandchildren, ages 11 and 3 weeks. The girls are still ahead!
Thank you December for another busy and fun-filled month! Most of all thank you for giving us a chance to reflect on the birth of the most precious baby ever to walk the earth.
