William had his Christmas pageant last night for his pre-school.  He was a wise man and did an excellent job of singing, clapping and marching!

The Circus

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Friday night we went to the circus with the McFalls. We were lucky enough to have first row seats. This of course means we were part of the show! Paul was pulled in to be part of an acrobatic show and the clowns wanted to shoot an apple off of Tom’s head!
