Samantha's Kindergarten class Christmas party.

Jim and Doug took Sam and Alden to a Husker basketball game.  Sam got picked to be in a game at half time.  They put all the kids shoes in a pile at center court. Then they had to run and put them on and come back and make a basket.  Samantha found the girl in blue's shoes for her because they had the same type of boots.  

She almost made it to the hoop.

She won a hot dog for playing.  Alden was the real winner.

Then the kids hung out with this guy in a Santa suit.

They love this little game where they match shapes and Grandpa is good at it too.

After Christmas there was a nice warm day and we got some Ice time at Mahoney State Park!
