Both girls had a Christmas party the Friday before Christmas. It was really great timing for both! Eden's was first and an hour later was Lola's. Eden had a great time at her party. I have to admit, it was a task putting that party together! So much blood, sweat, and tears went into that. But in the end (as usual with all the children's events) I'd do it all over again! The kids had a blast, the parents really stepped up and helped out when needed and the teacher loved her gift the entire class presented her with at the party.

Lola's party was very sweet and brought tears to my eyes, in a different way. The teacher read a story about the meaning of Christmas and each child had an ornament to place in the tree. Some children had baby Jesus, others presents, and so forth. In the end they all decorated the tree together. Then they sang songs. Lola and her friend were such characters that day. Here's a wee bit of footage from her celebration:
