Happy Valentines Day 2010!

Emmett's 2nd Birthday! Nov 2009

We had a little Dora adventure for Emmetts 2nd birthday. Swiper the fox stole the pinata for the party! The kids had to go through the spooky forest, through the dark tunnel, wake up the sleeping bear, across the troll brige, to the balloon castle to find the pinata. It was a lot of fun for all. I was Dora and Minor was Boots! Opa was the grumpy old troll.

Star STUDENT week of January 4th

In Kindergarten the kids get to be the star student the week of thier birthday, or close to it. This was Chloes week. We made a poster(picture to come soon) which SHE read to the class monday all by herself. She got to be the special helper all week. Then today I got to go in and read the book her classmates made for her. I got to read what they wrote and them ask them each about the picture they drew. Then I got to read the book of her choice. Lastly the star student brings in a treat. According to Chloe she is the only one who has brought cupcakes and the only one who's parent actually made the treat. Lucky girl! It was lots of fun, especially since I work in the classroom once a week and all the kids no me and I know them.

Holiday Cookies 2010!

Today we cut out the Christmas cookies! AND ATE COOKIE DOUGH (SAMMY LOVES ANYTHING SWEET) I am making german jelly cookies for Chloes fine dining party Friday. The rest of the cookies will get decorated with Uncle Brent when he arrives next week! The pictures below are from last year. I have no idea why it posted today, but it's fun to compare.

Where is my cookie?

We made and decorated Christmas cookies this year. We rolled the cookies in the morning and then had a friend over to decorate in the afternoon. The kiddos were very into the frosting(eating it that is) See Emmett in the background, that look on his face is because he knows when he is getting jipped. If he could talk I'm sure he would say, "Hey whats the big idea"

Snow in the East Bay!

Sammy's school PJ party!

Sam was very excited about his PJ party. He talked about it for weeks. We was a little sad that it was not for mommy and daddies too. I let him bring his slippers and one(he snuck another) guy in his backpack. He wanted to bring much, much, much more. His class made spiders in spider webs that earlier that week.

First Kindergarten fieldtrip!

The boy chloe is holding hands with is Kyle C one of her "boyfriends". The picture here is not posed nor is the one hugging. They did that on their own. The bottom picture, on the bus, is Jack H, her other boyfriend.

October FUN!
