Yesterday's snow fun

Snow fun continues

Today, after playing in and shoveling snow in the morning, Thea and her Mom went shopping together while Liam and went as a team. When we got back Liam wanted to play in the snow one more time. Just before we went inside, he proudly displayed this giant ice boulder. My big strong
man!!!

Thea's ambitious art project

On her own, Thea created this poster before she went to sleep last
night. It is inspired by an alphabet song that one of her teachers
taught her and her class.

Elementary Holiday Performance

Thea's school put on a show, with the school band performing some very
short (10 seconds) pieces of music, and then a play acted by the Third
Grade class. Here they are doing The Littlest Christmas Tree. Very
cute, and Thea and Liam liked it a lot, although they got very tired.
Someday, without a doubt, my little cuties will be performing on that
stage. And I'll probably cry I'll be so proud!

I just want to bang on the drum all day

Kids have always loved Todd Rundgren. Mine are no exception.
