The back

Allison's first grade put on quite the performance for all the parents last week.  Allison played the part of Fannie goat and had to do a solo in front of everyone. She did a really great job and I think she really liked it too!  She also played the part of duck in the play Little Bear.  It was amazing to see all of the kids perform and besides the narrators, they all memorized their lines.

Daddy Daughter Dance Part 2

Well, this is the second year that Allison and Craig have gone to the Daddy Daughter Dance and I think it was a lot more fun the second time around.  Last year they went to a fancy restaurant with a huge group and it took forever!  This year, she went with her best friend, Emma and her dad and they decided to go to Big Bob's Pizza.  Popcorn and pizza, the perfect before dance dinner.  She got a darling corsage and some cute photos at the dance too!  Ella really wanted to go to.....it won't be long and he will have one on each arm:)

Ready for the dance, but Craig looks like he has a head piece

Silly girls

Me too, daddy

Ready to go

Off they go

PRESCHOOL PJ Day

So happy about his Mario jammies

Connor with his buddy, John

Connor has been asking for weeks when he was going to be able to wear his pjs to school.  He was SUPER excited when his teachers informed us that they would be having a pajama day.  What a fun day for all the preschoolers.  Not only did they get to wear their pjs to school, but they got to decorate a pillow case and have donuts for snack!  Of course, Connor insisted on wearing his summer short sleeved and shorts pjs with Mario on them.  Since he had to wear snowpants on the playground anyway, I figured it was not worth fighting over:)  One happy kiddo!

Family Picture Nonsense

So, it has always been difficult to get a good family picture.  The more kids you add and the harder it gets.  Add a dog to the picture and it gets even harder.  Especially a puppy who just loves to bite your feet.  Here is a glimpse of the family photos from Christmas 2011!

Not sure exactly what Connor is doing here.  Great of Allison and so so of the rest of us.

This truly captures what a pain Miley can be:)

Again, Connor making some strange face:)
