December was a very busy month filled with lots of fun!
It started with the Arlington Christmas parade. The day was cold and rainy, but we made the most of it and had a good time.
After the parade, I got to have dinner with some very long time friends! Karen and her mom, Sue, were in town so we got together with my mom and Kellie and Teresa. We were at the restaurant for about 4 hours, and we had so much fun!
Our principal, Anna Jones, had us all over to her house for Christmas bunco. We had a blast!

Ava had her picture taken with her saxophone.
We went to the Singing Christmas Tree at Bellevue.
