Xander and Clare

Not a great shot, but shows just how much fun Xander had at the D-Block Christmas party. 

My little elves in line for the desserts.

Reading at Anya's while X and A shot baskets down at the elementary school.

Surrounded by girls.

Our second annual visit to the Holiday Port Festival with the Winters.

 

I love when they both come home from the bus stop together. I'm going to miss this when X is off at middle school!

Working hard in Math Club with Eli.

While Clare and McKenna goof around in the library.

Sometimes you have to stop for DQ after Christmas shopping. 

Opening Christmas presents with Henry in Seattle.

Waiting to watch X's first tournament game in Renton.

Waiting between games.

It's really too bad these boys don't have fun in between all the hard work.

Fifth graders make blue winter hats every year -- Silver Beach tradition.  

Goodies from Grammy Eve!

Clare's snowman (top, center).

Winter sing-a-long.

Making gingerbread houses in Mr. Perigo's class.

He's gonna get me in trouble, smiling for the camera instead of listening to his coaches.

Heartbreaking 2-point loss in today's first game, but then a fantastic blowout, winning 43-14 in the second. More basketball tomorrow!
