The Peck Family decided to make a trip to the Zoo. I had not been there in several years. It has really changed. We saw every inch... but my favorite... the giraffes. You can even feed them!! The train ride was fun for all, and of course Mimi and Papa had to buy something for Madison and Chase at the Gift Shop. I think all will sleep well tonight!

Peck Family Holiday....

What a wonderfully tiring but fun-filled day. This year we went to my oldest son's house for Christmas Dinner. It was great... we just had to bring two dishes and the mothers. My son and daughter-in-law really did most of the work! Thanks, Kids!

As usual, Chase was the life of the party. He "tried" to teach Mimi how to play a Star Wars video game...ha ha. Then after we were "stuffed" with Christmas Dinner... he comes downstairs with "THE WIG"!

Hope your day was as awesome as mine....

Be sure to check out the pictures below...

Kindergarten News...

Kindergarten had a busy week... but we found time on Wednesday to listen to Mrs. Peck's favorite Christmas book..."A Wish to Be a Christmas Tree". We practiced predicting and talked about the LESSON the story taught us. Mrs. Peck also read one of Mrs. Watson's favorite Christmas books..."The Wreath".

Friday was our holiday happening. Be sure to check out the pictures. We made two kinds of snowmen. They were cute and edible!!!

Have a wonderful holiday.

Love you, Mrs. Peck
