The 2nd Grade Music Program was in December this year. I was able to take Grandma Ro to the last practice since she was flying home before the performance.
Then, Grandma and Grandpa Weed were able to come to the school performance since they were flying home before the Parent Performance. I thought they did their best at this one. Damon had a speaking part and played the hand bells in 2 numbers. Tommy was singing the Hanukkah song a few days later and I had the Elf rap in my head for days. It was really cute and the kids did a good job!
After the school performance, we checked the boys out and headed up to Longwood Gardens. My dad has memories of going there with his family around Christmas time, so he wanted to go again. Barrett was supposed to have 2-3 things that afternoon/evening, but was able to get out of them and come with us! It was pretty cold, but beautiful! We watched the fountain show to Christmas music then warmed up in the conservatory and hunted down the venus fly traps! We climbed the outdoor treehouses and saw the cute decorations. Hannah has been giving up naps so was a mess and Damon's stomach wasn't feeling great, but we still had a good time. We're excited to have an annual pass to go back and explore!
My parents flew out the next day and we sure missed them. That night was the 2nd Grade Parent and Family performance. We were excited to see that they added a Merry Christmas sign amongst all the different holidays:) It was the music teachers very last performance since she was retiring before the holidays. She was wonderful and we have enjoyed her the last few years. Hopefully the school and hire someone as great!
