Hilliard Memorial Holiday Festival

Published by at 10:59 pm under family

Monday evening was the Holiday Festival at Nicholas’ school. It kicked off with a spaghetti dinner followed by a Christmas concert by the orchestra. (Nicholas is in the center of the photo below in the Santa hat) During this song, only certain kids stood up and they played it by themselves. Very impressive! I can’t believe how much they’ve improved in the past year!!

We were hesitant about taking Ally since we weren’t sure if she would sit through the whole thing, but with the assistance of some juice and vanilla Oreos, she did awesome! At the end, she stood up on Bryan’s lap. Bryan said “Look. .do you see Nicholas? Can you say Nicholas?” (of course we know she can. .she says it all the time) but when Bryan asked her this time, she yelled “Nickwiiis! Nickwiiis!” It was hilarious! Nicholas even heard her all the way down on stage! It was like she was at a rock concert yelling his name!!!! Rock on! Jingle Bell Rock that is!

On the way out we found out that Santa was in the library! We decided to give it a try. . .Nicholas took her up to Santa and she went right to him! She only wanted to tell him about her beanie baby guinea pig that she was holding. . .nothing about Christmas gifts. But. . .I guess he already knows that she’s been a really good girl and what she wants to find under the tree on Christmas morning!
