WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

The highlight for both Preston and Marissa was the same today.  They got to perform in a virtual piano recital that was recorded for grandparents to watch at home.  Preston has been working so hard and did such a great job playing "We Three Kings."  

MARISSA

Marissa loved getting dressed up for her Christmas recital in her Christmas sweater and Santa hat.  She performed "Little Drummer Boy" but also worked on a separate song since she learned her first piece so well.  The other song she learned for Christmas is "Ding Dong Merrily On High."  I will have to try to get a recording of her playing that one as well.  

CALEB

The highlight of Caleb's week was another game of Monopoly that lasted two days.  He loves practicing his math using games.  We put in new flooring in two bathrooms this past weekend so Caleb and Marissa were excited to have a box to create a fort and get their game going.  

OTHER

SNOW

The kids got to play at grandma and grandpa's house while we finished the bathroom remodel.  They were so lucky to have some snow and be able to sled while they were there.  

They also put together puzzles, played Uno and did their reading and math.  Preston is working on the 6th Harry Potter book and Marissa is really enjoying "The Critter Club" series.  She was so excited to find a Christmas one in the series to read this week.
