Landon's Preschool Winter Concert
The preschool winter concert was so cute! All of the children did a great job. Landon surprised us all, he knew all of the songs and sung really loud, it was awesome!! We are very proud of our little 4 year old.

Santa Visits Scotland Early
We were so excited about our early visitor this morning! Santa Claus visited our house early this year because we will be heading back to Texas in a week. The boys were most excited about their big surprise...a Polaris Ranger Razor ride on. They have been riding it all day in the culdesac and to the park in our neighborhood. Landon got a gumball machine and Trent got his ant farm kit (now we have to find ants in Scotland!!) Mommy has some new Dubarry boots and Daddy received some sweaters and a shirt. We all must have been good!!
Cookies and Milk for Santa, Carrots for the Reindeer
and to our surprise what would appear...a gumball machine and Ranger Razor ride on!!
Crackers!!
Highlights from the Week
This week Trent's Kindergarten class sang for the Elementary Holiday Assembly. We saw our first light dusting of snow in Aberdeen and on Saturday we saw the Aberdeen Dons Football team play while in a box suite. Lots of fun!!
O Scottish Christmas Tree
We finished decorating our tree, this time with ornaments we have purchased throughout Scotland, London and Paris. We even had a Scottish tree skirt to finish the tree. Trent and Landon decided to have multi colored lights on the tree this year. So here is our SCOTTISH tree...Lovely!!
Santa and Mrs. Claus
Last Sunday we visited Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus at Mains of Drum Garden Centre. Trent and Landon were very excited and asked Santa if he could come visit us early this year since we would be heading back to Texas. They were surprised that Santa remembered them from last year, he said that he remembered Trent snoring and Landon was very quiet!!
