Sacred Heart Christmas Luncheon

Blake with his best friend Robert...aren't they both the cutest?!


Blake with his 8th grade Heart Pal Paul...I think they look like brothers.


Even though Blake was in the back, I managed to get a shot during the performance.


Today was our annual Christmas Luncheon for Sacred Heart. Every year it is a tradition that the Kindergarten students perform with their 8th Grade Heart Pals. It was a wonderful afternoon, beautiful venue (thank you Rancho Las Palmas!), and so much fun to watch Blake on stage along with the rest of my kindergarten kiddos. They all did a great job and were a big success! Here are some pictures from the day. Let's hope we raised tons of money for the school! Thank you Mrs. Delaney and the rest of the mom's and dad's for all of your hard work! We are so blessed!

Christmas Time at the Forrest's







Well as most of you know, Christmas is one of my absolute favorite times of the year. I have even threatened to start decorating before Thanksgiving : )! I have had so much fun decorating our new home this year. I have added a new tree in my dining room and although the tree in the family room grew as we added ornaments and is now a little tight for it's spot, it is a beautiful tree. We cut it down from a Christmas tree farm near my sister's home in Elk Grove over Thanksgiving. I ended up going against the grain and did not get our typical noble fir. This year I got a cedar tree. I like it a lot, especially since it is in our living area. It is a bit softer... no needles and a bit more casual. It is so much fun to see the excitement in the kid's eyes as I continue to add new things around the house! It should be a very fun Christmas season this year! Enjoy the pics. Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas!!
