December (in a nutshell)

 

Doing some lovin’ on Ivy – we’ve actually been doing that all of 2012, not just December.

Zack was part of a homeschool children’s choir this Fall and had a Christmas Concert to finish things off.

This was my favorite song they did – Noel Nouvelet – they sing parts of it in French!

This was one of Zack’s favorites – Do You Hear What I Hear?

I’ve been giving Zack piano lessons this year and the choir teacher let him play a song at the concert.  He got a little nervous at the end…

 

Some of us had a mini photo shoot:

Ivy discovered she likes to play the piano too!

On recommendation from some of the extended Gleed family, we drove to Lehi one Sunday evening to check out some cool Christmas lights.

We did some sledding at our favorite park.

You might notice in this picture that there’s a gap in Zack’s teeth, but don’t be fooled –he isn’t missing a tooth.  He’s just wiggled his loose tooth so much with his tongue that the other tooth is starting to grow crooked, away from his loose tooth (which is already quite crooked).

THIS is what a missing tooth looks like!  It was so loose just hanging on by thread – so he finally let me pull it out on Christmas Day – well, late Christmas night, because he got to stay up after bedtime if he let me pull it ;-)

This picture is the day after Christmas, on our way to California.  We’d only been in the car and on the road for 5 minutes and Ivy was already asleep!  It may have been because we left at 1 in the afternoon (aka: naptime) – but at least the roads were cleared by then (we had a nice little snow storm that morning) and thankfully we had a safe drive the whole way down.
