January-February 2015

KK and D:  We are having a blast with all our fun new gifts from Christmas!

Puzzles from Uncle Marv and Aunt Leigh - we can't wait to do each morning!



And school is going great for both of us.  Kindergarten is awesome.  A boy named Garret asked me to marry him and, just like in Frozen, I said "yes!"   He wrote me a love note but Mommy said I shouldn't marry him because it was too soon and he didn't even spell my name right on the note.  Hmmmm.....something to think about, but I think I'll probably marry him anyway.   I'm making lots of new friends although there is always some sort of drama on the playground, with people playing with you one day and then not playing with you the next.  That's ok, sometimes I just stay inside and read or go out on the monkey bars by myself.  I seriously love the monkey bars, I could swing, hang and flip all day long!   And, I seriously love my teacher, she is the best and I can't wait to see her each day - sometimes I write her notes or draw her pictures on the weekend cause I miss her so much!

And, thank goodness for our Sunday dinners with our long-time friends - it makes all the new friend drama much less important.


Mommy and Daddy are meeting a lot of new friends too through my school and our neighborhood.  They celebrated together for Valentine's Day, looking good!


And Valentine's Day was great for us too!


We also had Ski Week in February and headed to Tahoe for some skiing time with our cousins.   So happy Uncle Drewsy and Auntie Shell made it too!!!


It's total Spring Skiing weather up here, not a ton of snow but the weather makes skiing pretty easy!  Logan and I are rocking it and D and Milo are doing a couple small lessons too!


Everyone needs to pitch in and help, that's what family is all about!

Happy New Year 2015!

KK and D:  We've finally made it to 2015 (phew!)!  Let's give a few highlights from the end of 2014 and start to 2015.

Rocked my entire Lego shopping center.   Boom!


Hot cocoa as big as our heads with Daddy.



New Year's Day smashing of our Gingerbread tradition at Uncle Ry's.

And then time to vacate our house for our hardwood floors to be put in and redone.

That's ok, we'll make the most of it - off to Arrowhead and then the Marriott Vacation Villas in Newport Coast!


Not exactly "roughing it" while we are displaced from our home...


And we might as well go to Pismo Beach with Daddy too, just so he doesn't get lonely!


And San Fran too to visit the fam....why not???

ps - I'm the Queen of the Monkey Bars....here and at school.

Holding hands all over San Fran.

And we even got to see Lulu too!



2015 is off to an awesome start!


Christmas 2014

KK and D:  Santa here we come!





Grammy and Papa are here...love it.  Just a couple guys reading and hanging out.




Books by the fireplace while we leave milk and cookies for Santa...




The big day is here!   And we finally found our pictures so here we go!!!




OMG!  The big guy was definitely here!  Even huge footprints from the chimney!!!!!!!! (He really should consider cleaning up for himself after the fact....just sayin')


All things from "Frozen" for KK and all things Superhero for D!  Just like we asked for in the notes
that we burned in our firepit  - the elves definitely got our smoke signals!

Doesn't take long to make a huge mess!





It's a gorgeous Christmas day so we're taking it for a spin!


And then off to the Macer's for dinner - check out the incredible spread!!!  No one knows how to entertain like Auntie Celeste.  #blessed



Oh what a day!
