December is a busy month! Liam played basketball on the 5th grade basketball team. There weren't enough 5th graders, so the 4th graders got asked to play. In addition to that, Lilly had ballet and was getting ready for the Nutcracker production. Liam had a Christmas concert, where he played in beginning band for the first time (percussion). Liam and Lilly also each had a Christmas Program.
Luke sometimes acts like a cat and tries to squeeze in tight places.
