Hitting the Ski Slopes

Last weekend was our first weekend on the slopes.
Had a great time in Winter Park and looking forward to the
ski season.

Holiday Readings

Both Maddie and Clare had "holiday book" readings in their Montessori classrooms.
Maddie's class read "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" and Maddie was a Who.



Clare's class read "The Mitten" and she was a badger.

Holiday Concerts

Olivia and Maddie had three holiday concerts with their Flatirons Youth Chorale.
Two were at senior centers and one was at the mall.
They were amazing!

Day Four- Aruba

Its a pretty quiet day today.
Baby Beach all day yesterday exhausted the girls and fried everyone else.

So...I thought I'd attempt a Holiday Card photo and this was what I got.
Awesome.

Day Three- Aruba

Tuesday we spent the day at Baby Beach.
It's a beautiful beach that has calm waves
and only waist deep water.

It took Clare a little while, but finally I forced her in
and then I had to bribe her to get out!



Olivia and Clare coloring- this was before I forced her in the water.
