School Performance

This last week of school S had her Christmas around the world performance. The auditorium was packed and there was standing room only. I arrived a little late so I ended up sitting with J and S's friend A on the ground. There were four Kindergarten classes so it was hard to see my little shorty. Can you finder her?

There she is, hiding behind the boy with the spiky hair.

Here she is with her teacher, who she loves.

Her friend A came along too.

Good job singing S.

Christmas Hula Performance

I was so proud of S as she danced in her hula performance. She concentrated so hard and remembered all her dance moves.

I thought it was cute watching the girls peek out from behind the curtain as they were trying to watch the older girls dance.

 

S and her hula teacher, Aunti.

Some of her biggest fans come to watch.

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we went up to Steve's Parents. We enjoyed some good food and family time. On Friday we went on a family hike. It was going to be a huge family hike but we got lost getting there so it became a small family hike for us. There were many people walking their dogs which was exciting for our girls, and when we reached the top of the hill we had a wonderful view of LA. 

 After our hike we found the rest of our family and were able to join them for lunch.

That night Christmas came early for our Family. The girls were spoiled with presents from their Aunts and Uncles, Grandma Judy and Grandpa Donnie. Thank you everyone they loved it. We ended the night with a swim in Tami's hot tub. It felt so nice relaxing in the warm water.

Busy Fall

Things have started to slow down a little as it is getting closer to Christmas. S finished her soccer season and was excited to get another trophy. She also had a Thanksgiving performance at her school. She sang several songs and then had a feast with her class. Then this last weekend S had her Hula performance. Grandma Judy, Grandpa Donnie, Aunt Tami, Sallianne and her family were all able to join us. I was very proud of her as I watched her dance. She really has a talent for dancing.

 I thought it was funny watching the girls peek out around the curtain to see the older girls dance.

J and I have also been busy after we drop S off at Kindergarten. She and I get most of our shopping done in the mornings and we like to play at the park and have dance parties at home. She is my little buddy in the morning and I am enjoying having her all to myself.

Things that make me smile

Whenever I walk outside and see a rainbow or a hot air balloon I can't help but smile.  This week I saw both.

 

Sunday we walked out our front door and heard a noise above us. We looked up and were greeted by some people in a hot air balloon. We were seriously that close. I thought they might land on our house.
