The Littlest Leprechaun

One of the fun things about being Hailey's teacher is getting to spend every day with her. 

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day today. I absolutely love the ears on my little leprechaun!

Guess Who's 16?

Yes, it's Megan.  Time really has flown.  Happy Sweet Sixteen!

Hailey's Quilt from Grandma Sorensen

Grandma Sorensen finished another beautiful quilt, this time for Hailey.  We had a chance to visit her while she was working on it and Grandma showed Hailey how to tie a quilt.  Hailey names all of her blankets, this one is "Peach."  Thanks Grandma!

Caught Reading

It's hard to find fictional books that boys like to read.  Josh's favorite book is The Strange Case of the Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger.  He's loved the entire series (3 books so far).  For Christmas Josh got Fake Mustache by the same author.  He got caught reading it over the holidays.  Gotta love it when your son chooses to read a book!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

 

We didn't get around to sending Christmas cards this year.  I blame it on the extra hours spent at work rather than the fact that they only picture I have of all of us this year is at Old Faithful. I guess one of my goals for the upcoming year will be to take more pictures and to get them off of camera.

Kynda's Birthday

Happy Birthday Kynda!

Our Little Linus

Hailey is a lot like Linus from the Peanuts.  She wants to take her blanket everywhere.  When she started 1st grade, we put her blanket (aka Mimsi) under house arrest.  That doesn't mean much to Hailey, even though she's a 2nd grader now.  At Julie's band concert this winter she sneaked Mimsi into the school inside her coat, only to pull it out as they were getting started.  Not much mom could do about it then.
