We read the story <em>&#8216;Twas the Night Before Christmas on the Farm<\/em> by Craig Manning.  It&#8217;s the night before Christmas and not a creature is stirring except for a little lamb.  A special visitor comes to the farm and visits the barn where most of the animals are fast asleep.  It is a wonderful twist from the classic story with sweet farm animals and rhymes.  After the story they made a rocking Santa.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"530\" height=\"398\" data-attachment-id=\"3389\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/2024\/12\/20\/twas-the-night-before-christmas-on-the-farm\/img_6315\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6315\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?fit=530%2C398&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?resize=530%2C398&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6315.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"530\" height=\"398\" data-attachment-id=\"3390\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/2024\/12\/20\/twas-the-night-before-christmas-on-the-farm\/img_6320\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6320\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?fit=530%2C398&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?resize=530%2C398&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/libraries.ne.gov\/elgin\/files\/2024\/12\/IMG_6320.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month we went to the first grade rooms at Pope John and Elgin Public schools.
