Saying Goodbye...

 Sadly we had to say goodbye to Hannah's best friend Greta.  Her family moved back to Montana.  We will all miss her and her family very much!  Hopefully we can meet up with them again when we move back to Michigan!

Caroling

 Kenzie & I went caroling with the Girl Scouts for our Mother/Daughter Event.  It was lots of fun!

Class Parties

 On December 13th we had Holiday parties at school.  For Hannah's class we had breakfast, made gingerbread houses and the kids sang.

 Hannah and her BFF Greta

We had Kenzie's party in the afternoon, we made snowflakes and decorated gingerbread cookies.

Both parties were lots of fun!

Christmas Decorations around town

Even though China does not celebrate Christmas a lot of places still put up decorations!

Winter Concerts

 Hannah's Winter Concert they sang "It's a Small World"

Kenzie's Winter Concert they sang several songs.

They both did a great job!
