Christmas School Parties

I know these are delayed, but at least they are on the blog now. 
Aliana and I went to both boys parties in December. They had fun with games, crafts, foods and gifts. 

Tonys whole 1st grade. 
Tonys class. 
A special Christmas game of passing the present left and right as the teacher reads the night before Christmas. A fun game!!! 
Tonys teacher Mrs. Oliver.   This is the same teacher that I am babysitting her son when he's 10 weeks old. I'm so excited and so are the kids.

Aliana's 1st preschool day


Aliana has started a couple dance classes and preschool. 

Walking into school. 

Checking out her classroom. 

Standing by her cubby. 

Meeting other girls her age that are in her class.  She frowned a bit, but I think she will warm up to them nicely and she started talking about her hair. They were all so friendly to each right away. Thank you God for this easy transition.

A Family Outing

We surprised the kids with an afternoon of laser tag, rock wall climbing, putt putt and a couple arcade games. 



Alex climbed the wall 3 times. I love how this kid will try anything as well as any food. 
 I have a video I'll have to upload.



Oh ya, bowling too. 



Daddy propped them up.

Putt putt the Deno way.







We had a really fun time together.

2013 first ice

The boys were out of school due to the ice storm that hit us on December 1st.  They were out for four days. Shocking but fun!



The kids were swimming in the pool.


Aliana and Alex were sucking on a nature-cicle...grass and then I looked out the window and saw Aliana sucking on a branch of a tree.  I started laughing to myself. 


They were trying to do snow angels but the ice kept hitting them in the face.  It really does hurt.


The kids came back in for hot cocoa, a fire, blankets, and a movie.  They went out two more times that day.


On our way out to do a jeep-thing behind our house with a sled attached to the back. 





Getting ready to slide down the street that's right behind them.




Mark and I had turns as well on the sled and my have had just as much fun as the kids did. 
He's alright, just acting like I flung him off going to fast around the corner.
