i know what you're thinking..."how on earth did they travel back in time and snap this awesome shot of a megaraptor in action and live to tell about it?" truth is, it's just a diorama. shocking, right? it was part of xan's first major school project...a report (written and oral on a dinosaur and a diorama.) alan totally saved my bacon on this one and it was a "guy project" for the better part of a week.
the finished product...i have no idea what he's doing or pointing at. we honestly could not get a good shot of the kid with the diorama...as evidenced in the following photo.
granted, it was late. the boy was TIRED!now onto the girl....today hadley had ballet class with a special performance at the end! if you scroll to the post below this one, you can link to the exciting video clips, but for now, here are some stunning still shots.
the girl is a ham, but a lovely one.
hads and miss maya...sooo cute in the tutus for today's performance.this next shot is my fave...
because it looks just like this drawing hadley did for miss susie last week.
see what i mean? i have no idea why she wrote "hadley" across her head, but i guess it's as good a place as any. it serves an an artist's signature and a decorative element.
love the look on the kids faces here. but it doesn't even compare to hadley's face in the next photo, which i captured just as santa made his grand entrance:
priceless!
we also made and delivered a few Christmas goodies this past week. here's what most of you are missing out on.
toffee, peppermint sticks, and gingersnaps. doesn't get much more Christmas-y than THAT! and the bags were tied up with a cute, red, green, and white cord that you can JUST make out in the background. 
and finally, a sneak peek inside. just pretend you've just found one on your doorstep and are anxiously peering inside. the peppermints look so festive! no match for what k. lyman left on my porch this morning though....i think it contained about 12 different cookie varieties. one-upper! :) j/k it's fantastic. hope the kids get some.

last weekend was the P2 Christmas party (that's our ward party...princeton 2nd). as is tradition in our ward, we had a special visitor.

we love and miss all our family and friends that are not a part of P2. (we love you guys too, but don't miss you, per se...)
merry christmas!

Ah, Christmas goodies and Sophie's favorite little Hadley... sigh. The dino exhibit totally had me fooled, did Alan let Xan help?
So cute!
That's one cool dino-rama!
Ew, my word verification is "fepsesse" ... sounds like something filled with puss.
