I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas break and are excited to start a new year!  We sure have had a lot of snow this season!!  I am looking forward to seeing the kids tomorrow and amazed that we are already half way through our third grade school year!!  We had a lot of fun with our elf, Holly, before Christmas and she has headed back to the North Pole!  Also, thank you so much for the help at the Christmas party and the supplies sent in to enjoy at our cookie decorating table!!
