Cameron's Christmas program

 Cameron's school had a Kindergarten program for Grandparents' Day. (I am not sure why they called it that and not just a Christmas program??)  Anyway, Cameron was SO CUTE in the program!  I am pretty sure I didn't stop smiling during the whole thing!  He sang his heart out.  This is my favorite picture ever.  Look at how happy he looks and how he is doing the actions and singing....!  This was his favorite song too.  It was something about Christmas in Hawaii and Santa doing the hula.

 Cameron was proud to have Grammy and Grampy there to watch him.  After they had milk and cookies for everyone.

His excitement was so cute!!

Then we got to go to his classroom and the kids could read or draw or do what they wanted with their grandparents.  Cameron asked Grampy to read him a book.  It was a great day and one he will always remember :)

So grown up!

 On Wednesdays Mackenzie and I go help in Cameron's Kindergarten class.  Usually Mackenzie plays with the kitchen set and the dolls while I help the kids with their math, spelling, and art they do at their rotation tables.  Today was so cute.  She wanted to do the math too.  So she got a paper and sat down and started writing on it.  She kept telling me she was doing her math.  And then she wanted to write her name and letters.  She is growing up too fast!

 Then we came home and played a mean game of "guess who".  She wanted to sit on the stairs.  I couldn't resist taking a few pictures while we were playing.  I was laughing so hard at how she was sitting.  She is a crack up.  She is pretty girly, but also tough and active!  Such a good mix :)  I love playing games with her, she is at the best age right now!!!

Awwww

I love this picture!  Mackenzie loves her daddy.  I walked in the room and this is how I found them.  Jeremy is always on his computer in bed, but it was so cute to see her snuggled up next to him with my iPad playing a game!

Crazy weather and crazy kids

 So this is December 5th....the snow pictures I posted were November 23rd....we haven't had a snow storm since then.  In fact, we have had some crazy warm weather.  Like 60's!    The kids have been enjoying it :)

They love to do tricks on the swings.  Cameron has fun swinging and jumping out onto the grass.  He is super good at swinging himself.  He starts on his own and pumps all by himself.   Mackenzie is so funny, she copies everything Cameron says and does!  Hopefully he continues to be a good example!!  However, she is fearless and will do whatever he does....I am afraid for future hospital visits.

First winter snow

 The kids were super excited for the first snow of the season to stick in the valley.  It has been an unusually warm winter this year.  This was the first and last snow storm we have had.  And it wasn't even a big one!  The kids enjoyed it though.

 Jumping on the trampoline was a little more difficult they found out.

They sure are cute all bundled up!

Rock band

 My kids love music.  They love to dance and sing!  We made a "rock band" and sang and danced our hearts out all morning!  So much fun :)

Decorating cookies

 We decorated sugar cookies to be festive for Thanksgiving.  The plan was to decorate them like turkeys, but with all the candy Kenzie put on hers you couldn't even tell there was a cookie under it!! Cameron did a cute smily face.  I took my turkey cookies to my visiting teaching people :)

Book Fair

 Cameron was super excited for his first book fair.  We went through all the Scholastic paper order forms that have been sent home the last few months.  He circled all the things he wanted.  We went early before school started and shopped.  I told him he needed to bring his own money and that I would pay for some, but he also had to pay for some....basically just matching the money he wanted to spend.  He had the hardest time deciding on a book!  After he picked his book, we went to the lunch room for "books and buddies" (I had no idea what that was), but we walked in, got a doughnut and chocolate milk and enjoyed talking to each other.  They gave us a raffle ticket when we walked in and they drew out Cameron's ticket!!  He got to go pick a book from the table.  He chose the book you see on the table.  Super fun morning.

 After school Cameron wanted to take Mojo up to his "spot" and read to him...and nap :)  He put his blankets and pillow up there.  He is such a funny kid!
