We invited Rudy's whole class over for cookie decorating and an Elf movie night. This isn't my first rodeo, so I had a slew of activities planned to keep the kids busy. (I've long since learned that a large number of kids in a house with no focused activities can lead to disaster!)
They decorated cookies, ate pizza, played "Pass left, pass right," took a few photos with some props (much less of a hit than I anticipated), and watched the movie. We had some complaints when a few boys couldn't settle down for the movie, but it went pretty well overall. Rudy was thrilled that even his teacher joined in the fun; Mr. Smith ate dinner with the kids but then stayed downstairs with the adults and the grown up grape juice while the kids watched the movie upstairs.
