There's no greater feeling as a child than the "feel" of Christmas vacation looming. Today was no exception as Audrey's class had their little party and packed up for a few weeks.
Realities from the day include the following:
*a mad dash from my campus to Audrey's campus to make it in time, but a blessing that one of my dearest friends from college rode along with me
*an almost knock down drag out between me and the Mr. about how to get the crock pot full of homemade hot chocolate (thank you, Pinterest!) into the building
*an armed guard at the entrance of the school, with a long line, as visitors were checked in and screened one by one (breaks my heart at why it has to be this way, but after the events of last week...)
*me resisting creating something cutesy that would be time intensive to give as a gift to each child...instead, we brought Christmas bendy straws...but I really think my Pinterest reindeer food would have been super cute
*realizing that this is probably the only time that our family of 4 will get to go to a school party together
*Audrey crying later that afternoon asking to see her "best friend"....she sure does miss her Natalie
20 weeks and counting...
