The girls and I had some fun in the snow yesterday.  We have had such a warm winter that this is only the second day we have had enough snow to play in.

We braved the kids museum on a day all the schools were off for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.  We got there right after they opened so it wasn’t too bad in the morning.  But it was definitely busier by lunch time so we ate and headed home for rest time.

Here are some pics from the fun.

Ella brought home her first progress report last friday. She got 4 D’s for developing a skill and 36 I’s for being independent/proficient in that skill. Yeah Ella!! Her teacher commented “Ella seems to have adjusted well to the preschool setting. She seems to enjoy school and has made great progress in all areas. She is a VERY bright little girl and an absolute joy to have in class. Ella brings a lot of knowledge to class discussions.” We think that last sentence might mean she likes to share a lot. She is always saying how she is going to tell Mrs. Morrill this or Ms. Patty that. And she will tell anyone she meets that is 4 years old and goes to preschool and sunday school. Ella definitely doesn’t get that from her mother!

Here are some (belated) photos of Ella and Abby showing off their Christmas presents from Jeremy’s family. More pictures in the photo gallery.
