Jaiden's first Christmas "play" and school party were last Friday, December 8, and BOY were they the cutest! The 4-year-old class dressed up in Christmas sweatshirts, reindeer antlers and red noses and sang some all-time favorite Christmas songs, like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Jingle Bells," "Away in a Manger," and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," to name a few. Some of the songs had motions, jumping and silly choreography. It was way too cute!
I don't know if she was nervous -- or just being weird -- but Jaiden was cracking up and trying to get the other kids to laugh. (We have it on tape; it's hilarious!) She also had a small speaking part, and she did a great job... It was loud and clear, just like we practiced! Of course, she also kept asking when they could take off their noses! And then one little girl lost her nose during a song! It was so sad. But she managed to stick it back on. Literally. (Their noses were stuck on with masking tape!)
Jaiden's kindergarten class had their Christmas program last night in the cafeteria of their school. Parents and family members were everywhere... there was standing/sitting-on-the-floor room only! Aside from some soreness from the awkward seating, the program was fun -- and funny! Most of the kids didn't really sing as much as they yelled the words! Jaiden and her classmates did a great job! Of course, we couldn't hear her sing from where we were sitting/ standing.... so she could have very well been only mouthing the words to the songs!
