Beary Merry Holiday!

As I mentioned on Jaime's World, Jared had his very first elementary school Christmas concert tonight. It was so incredibly cute! The kids were all dressed in bear colors. Brown, White, black...etc. Jared was a black bear. All of the kids wore "bear ears." Mrs. Graves (music teacher) did a wonderful job choreographing, teaching and rehearsing the kids. The kids not only had to sing, they had to "dance," too. Some of the children had "speaking" parts. They couldn't have been any cuter! :)
We had sooooo much fun tonight! We were really impressed, one the songs they sang was "Panda-monium," it was rhythmically hard, but the kids did a beautiful job with it. OK, Tom and I were probably the only ones thinking of the music score, we can't help it, we're musicians. I think Tom really enjoyed watching someone else host a music concert for once! He starts his "concert season" next week. He's at 4 schools, each will have concerts in the evening and I believe during school time, too. CRAZY!
Speaking of school concerts, Jared will get to perform during school tomorrow for the other students at Wickliffe Elementary. I think he really had fun! He was whipped at the end of it (of course, he had his swimming lessons just before the concert) and really hot, too. We just "HAD" to take him to Dairy Queen for a slushy! HA!
By 8:30 P.M. both boys were in bed! It was a nice night!
Here are the pics we took. They aren't good at all because we were so incredibly far back and didn't want to run through the crowd just to snap a photo. We have to protect ourselves from germs as much as we can, too!

Notice the bear ears on their heads?

Getting set up.

Enjoy and have a nice evening!
