Preschool Pictures

Kate's preschool teacher, Ms. Kim, just shared some preschool pictures with us and here are a few of my favorites.  Kate LOVES being a Bouncy Bear and going to preschool!  It is a huge blessing to have such a wonderful school for her to attend.
 
Kate loves playing outside!
 Kate made some "earrings."
 Dress-up time!
 Kate got to share her favorite book with her class...."Pinkalicious".  I got to come to her class and read her book to her classmates.
 Last week was "Crazy Week" at school.  The first day was face paint day and Kate came home painted red and pink all over her face.  The second day was backwards day.  She wore her shirt and coat backwards.  She also walked into her class backwards with her sweatshirt hood over her face.  It was very cute!
 During backwards day all the kids sat on their seats backwards too.
 The last day was crazy hair day.  When I came to pick Kate up that day I found her surrounded by several of her classmate with her reading them all Pinkalicious.
 The whole Bouncy Bear class with crazy hair!

Tahoe Time with Dedushka and Grammalene

We just got back from a wonderful weekend at Tahoe with Will's dad and his wife, Helene.  It was Dedushka's birthday and we had a fun time celebrating with everyone! 
 Who has the longest arms?  I think Will won that competition.
 Maggie enjoys watching Kate play games on my iPhone.
 Time for cake!  Kate helped blow out the candles.
 There sure was a lot of smoke from the candles!
 Snow time!
 Maggie LOVES the snow.  She loves to scoop it up and throw it.
 We were trying to get a good sledding run going but it was a little difficult.
 Uncle Peter was helping Kate walk in the snow.
 Sledding with Grammalene
 We took a break from sledding and made a snowman.
 Everyone got involved with making the snowman look pretty awesome!

 Kate called the snowman Pinkalicious Mommy!
 Snowball fight with Dedushka!

 Kate LOVES playing Candyland and somehow managed to win every time!
 We were blessed with fresh snow on our last morning in Tahoe so we took advantage of the conditions and went sledding.


Maggie was throwing snowballs with Dedushka and giggling the whole time.  She was in heaven!


 She even started throwing snowballs at Grammalene.
 Maggie is at her happiest being surrounded by her water cups.  :-)

Tahoe Snow Play

We spent 2 nights, 3 days at our cabin in Tahoe.  We had a wonderful and relaxing time.  The girls both loved playing in the snow.  Our favorite activity was sledding down a hillside road.  Both girls loved riding the sled down the hill with Mommy, Daddy or Gramma.  Kate wanted to always be first and go faster and faster.  Hopefully we can make it back up to the snow before it all melts!
