Christmas Show and Tell at Dance

Kate loves dance! I love dance! Monday was her "show and tell". We got to sit inside the class and see eevrything they learned this semester.

Kate and her new friend, Olivia, got Perfect Attendance awards.

They had no idea what that meant!!

Daddy came from work to watch ... and she kept looking back to see him there!

And she kept talking to him during their performances.

And she kept smiling at him!

He is her favorite person on this earth ... mine, too!

Mrs. Lynn and Mrs. Jeanne are the most precious teachers!! We adore them!

to ballet, tap and tutus ...

Catchin' Up

Caleb was a carpenter from the 1700s in his living history project at school. He loved sharing with all of the classes about his trade.

We enjoyed a wonderful week away before Thanksgiving. We went to Austin for a few days, took Kate to her first Aggie game in College Station and enjoyed seeing family.

Kate was in a Thanksgiving program - too cute! She kept pointing and winking at Chris - and mouthing "Hi Daddy! You're here!!" Yes, I was there also but ... well ... Dad rules in our house right now!
