K-1 Christmas Party

Everyone is getting ready to start the "book walk"!

Bailey calls the numbers for the book walk.
And yes, that is mistletoe...

Eli's number has just been called and Gideon is checking it out!

Jordan and Marcus are both standing firmly
on their numbers hoping to be the next winners!

Number 12 - big winner! 
Spencer gets to go book shopping!

Number 8 is Tanner's winning number!

Another round and numbers to check!

Nevaeh and Paisley win with 1 and 30!

Paisley goes book shopping.  I wonder what book she'll choose.

Caleb and Gideon are shopping for a new book!

Here we go around again... who will be the lucky winner?

Kade chooses a Dr. Seuss favorite.

Hannah and Loghan are still hoping for the win!

Rowan, Baylee, and Paisley discuss their book picks!

Hmmm... will this be the book for Hannah?

Marcus and Richard negotiate.

Finally we get to eat our gingerbread men with hot chocolate!

Yum...

Just one more bite!

To eat or not to eat???

Ryan... look at the "hot tamales" on those gingerbread men!

I think Danny likes his sack of goodies from Santa!
Grrrrr...

Decorating Our Gingerbread Men

Jordan is putting "goodies" on his gingerbread cookie.

Hannah, Reese, and Ryan are all ready to begin.
What will you put on your cookie?

Tanner cuts a licorice rope just like the one the
Gingerbread Girl used to tie the fox's snout shut!

Eli and his finished gingerbread boys.

Shhhh... don't look but I think Nevaeh is talking to her gingerbread girl!

First graders, Kade and Riley are working hard - time to add more frosting!

Loghan adds another candy!

Baking Gingerbread

Richard is retelling the story of the gingerbread man.

Jordan is excited to start baking!

Danny too!

Look at all those gingerbread men on the tray.

Roll out the dough and cut it just so. 

Adding another gingerbread man to the pan.

The girls have lots of cookies. 
Notice how Hannah is checking to see if the cookie cutter is sharp.

Busy cooks...
