Sylvania Family Chirstmas

This year was the first time Anne was old enough to participate in the children's Christmas choir at our church and boy did she love it!

Here are a few clips from her big performance.

Thanksgving 2011

We started off our Thanksgiving holiday with a little Gran time.

We had our big meal at Great Grandma's house.

Anne caught two fish!

We ate turkey not fish.

I didn't really cut the turkey, just posed.

Anne Abby loved petting Semi.

Anne is carrying on the olive finger tradition Cousin Allison!

A little tryptophan nap.

KK Thansgiving Feast 2011

Abby was an Indian at her first KK Thanksgiving Feast. I was worried that she might repeat her sister's nose picking performance from previous years, but she took care of that before the music started.

Abby and Maggie

They are the only two girls in their class.

Drip Drop Drip Drop

It rained on Tuesday and the girls took advantage of it. They marched out with their boots and umbrellas to have a little fun. The tiny stream in our backyard turned into a rushing river and I was anxious that the girls would fall in, but they didn't SHOOF!

Anne demonstrating how to stay dry without an umbrella.

It didn't work.

Abby employing the same technique.

They wanted to take a bath when they were done playing. Thankfully I ran in to check on them after awhile because the water was literally an inch from overflowing!

Sight Words

A Rough Time in Aggieland

Anne was so excited to learn Scooby and Shaggy are Aggies.

Abby and Anne spent several quarters coloring.

Mom keeps a close eye on the Aggies.

This is the last time Scott smiled that day.

Kinder Acadmy

Anne's school occasionally puts on a Kinder Academy. Instead of going on a field trip the field trip comes to the school. The children have been studying about community helpers so the police and sheriff department, Ambulance drivers, Meals on Wheels, Meta Copter, bus drivers, garbage men, and firemen all sent a representative and coordinating vehicle for the children to see and learn about. Well to make a long story short. The local news covered the event and interviewed Anne. I was so excited and called the fam to let them know they should watch the news to see Anne's interview.

The news people cut her interview.
There were tears.
So I did the interview myself.
Please pardon my super annoying new caster voice.
