And So It Begins







Last day of school before the holiday break and boy oh boy did we use every minute of it! Hazel had a book exchange in class, then the school had a holiday assembly (pictures NOT included here but will be in my gallery soon). Right after school, Hazel went with her Daisy troop to the ice rink in Seattle Center so Trey and August and I met her there along with the Bazan and Nyssen families. We, and by we I mean the kids and Trey with a little bit of AK in there, skated around for about an hour and then went to the carousel conveniently located right outside the rink. Hot chocolate and a quick dinner were devoured before we left the downtown area to speed back to our hood so that the kids could spend the night at their friends house while Trey and I went to the school's teacher Christmas party. It has been a full day. A perfect way to start the break.
We have a few things planned for the break but for the most part we are hanging at home:And who could blame us? Seattle is a wonderful place to spend the holidays!
Ho! Ho! Ho!

It was a full and busy day, and loved adding the ice skating into our traditions this year. Still would love to head back downtown though, and see the gingerbread houses, etc.
