Oh Christmas Tree...

You've gotta love Jonathan's lovely sweater.  I seem to remember similarities that graced hangers in my mom's closet in the 80's and 90's (no offense, Mom!)...but Jonathan scrounged up this beautiful sweater with the nice tassel adornment (the best part of the sweater, in my opinion), and he wore it for our High School Christmas Party at church.  We told the kids to wear tacky Christmas sweaters for this party - it was great!  

Poor Jonathan - as he was moving the Christmas tree on the stage at church, the metal star on top fell off...and literally punctured him in his temple!  He has a nice battle wound from the incident, but I'm so glad he wasn't seriously hurt...it could have been a lot worse!  For the rest of the evening, we were finding bits and pieces of glitter on that side of his head that had come off of the star falling.  (ha!)  Anyway, kind of a crazy incident, and one that I'm glad to say wasn't worse.  

For the party, Brayden got decked out in his Santa outfit.  The kids loved it and he was the hit of the party!  (In my biased opinion!)  We all had a really fun time.  We had a great turnout of students, and Jonathan was able to share the real meaning of Christmas in the midst of all the fun and games.  It was a great night!
