Our Elf, Cowboy, has been playing a few tricks with the boys and eating some of their cookies! The boys are really enjoying the Elf this year and jump out of bed to find Cowboy each morning.
The boys had their annual Christmas program at school over the weekend and it was really hilarious to watch. There were three kids who dropped out at various times during the program and one child who had to use the potty midway through. Luke and Liam, however, somehow survived the entire program and even managed to sing a few of the songs. I was suprised last year by how little they sang any of the songs, but their teacher assured me that this would come with age. Seems like they are always pretty vocal at home, but maybe not in front of lots of people. The program happened to be in the middle of the afternoon which is a rather tricky time for us since it is close to naps. Luke and Liam can skip their nap and survive reasonably well, but Aiden is a different story. Aiden was in desperate need of his nap by the time the program began so we made a quick exit after treats and a visit with Santa.
We also got together recently to exchange gifts and watch the "Elf on the Shelf" movie with our best twin friends (Jack and Charlie) and their baby brother, Andy. It was a loud, fun, memorable evening with presents, popcorn, and lots of fun. This might be the first year where the boys played independently for a short time and the adults actually held some conversation. We are thankful for all the good friends we have met during our short time in Minnesota.
