kindergarden artwork

 

Sophia participated in a t-shirt decorating contest for the Silly Olympics at her school. The bottom photo shows a gingerbread graph on display in the hallway outside of Sophia's classroom. "Gingerbread Girl" was the most popular story. Sophia decorated her own gingerbread on the bottom row. Can you find it?

Fairyland with Thalia

Yesterday I had such a fun time with Thalia at Fairyland. She confronted her fear of the carousel and ended up going on 7 times! She also loved the train. I feel so lucky to have time to play with her.

First Day of School

I love this photo, taken by Hazel's mom on the first day of kindergarden.

Cornell ice cream social

This evening was the Cornell ice cream social, put on by the PTA. Both girls wanted to dress up in costume. It was fun to have Mari with us. In the top photo you can see Sophia's new classmates: Amelie and Sander.

Thalia's bus ride

Today after I dropped Sophia off at kindergarden Thalia and I hopped on a bus to go get our haircut. Thalia was escatic to be on the bus, it was so much fun. I brought along art supplies for us. After our haircut we stopped for a slice of pizza at the Cheeseboard. Yum!
The top photo was taken this morning just before drop off and it is interesting because Sophia spontaneously sat down on this bench and suggested I take a photo of her. Of course I didn't have my camera with me but I had my phone!

Anniversary

Tomorrow is our 6th wedding anniversary and today we celebrated it in the wine country while Nana D watched the girls. We had a lovely time up in Domaine Carneros. Happy Anniversary, Steve!
