Tegan's 1st Christmas Pageant

Tegan had two parts in the Old Meetinghouse church's annual pageant. There was a serious snow storm this whole time...it was awesome.

First she was an angel...

Then she was a minnow...

The Nativity scene...
And afterwards, Finn got to feed the baby calves, who also starred in the pageant.
The walk/sled back home from church...

Ice skating on Turtle Pond near our home

And Finn catching in a ride in the shovel...

Holiday Concert

Tegan and Finn had a Christmas concert (being a Catholic school it can actually be a "Christmas concert") tonight. Unfortunately, the lighting in the church is not great so we don't have any good ones of the kids on stage - just the posed pre and post-shots.

Waiting in the wings . . .

After the show . . .

By the time we got home, Finn wasn't really in the mood for more pictures. He humored us . . .but barely!
