A very merry Christmas program... (and Hannukah, and Kwanzaa...)

I went to my middle son's Christmas program at his school today. Well, they don't technically call it a CHRISTMAS program, it's a "Holiday program". I tried my darnedest to get some good pics, but that gymnasium lighting leaves much to be desired. I even set my custom white balance and they all STILL came out greenish! Thank goodness for RAW. Truly saved most of my pics! Of course, most of them I cannot post here, as they have other children's faces clearly visible, but there is one I feel I can post that I took of the whole group. My boy is in the 3rd row fromthe bottom, 2nd from the left. Although he looks like any other kid in this pic.

Arent' they all just the cutest in their little Santa hats? And they got to keep them, which THRILLED my daughter. She was just itching to get her hands on that hat and try it on!

And of course, I can't leave out my boys, these will make nice blackmail for future use... bwahhh ahhh ahhh...

Really savor that last one... that's my 10 year old who NEVER smiles and is almost impossible to get a decent pic of. That one was a treat!

It was a really cute program. They sang holiday songs from several different countries (my ds's class was "Sweden") and my daughter had a great time singing (well, trying to sing) and clapping along. She really entertained the people sitting next to us with her antics and her booty shaking.

I'm still working on going through my picture cd's, I looked at a couple of them today but didn't come across anything that really struck me. But then again, I tend to be WAY over-critical of myself.

So anyway, I'm off to take another dose of Nauzene and see if I can't get my stomach to quit churning (I think I've got a touch of the flu-- ick).
