Polar Express 2011

It has been FOREVER since I posted anything, but at least I am posting now. We took our annual Polar Express trip with Grammy and were greeted by harsh winter conditions on the drive up, but the snow covered mountains were absolutely breath-taking!
It was really cold, I think the temperature gauge in my car read 9 degrees at one point, but the kids had a blast.









Enjoying our hot chocolate on the train!

Madee making her snow angel

Belle loved making hers too

As we approached the North Pole, the kids were "glued" to the window.

Spring Break

At the beginning of Spring Break, Grandma Vicki had a great surprise for us! She took us to the lot where Disney's Sunny with a Chance is filmed. After watching an actual show being taped, the girls had the chance to meet a couple of the stars! They were so happy to meet Tiffany, Tawny of SWAC! It was a fantastic day!

A Kindergarten Poet

Kindergarten has brought so many new experiences for all of us. Today on Valentine's Day, all the kindergarteners read the poems they wrote to a room full of parents!

Isabelle and her teacher showing us the pictures she drew to accompany her poem.

Better Late than Never

We took our annual Guy Family trip to Williams, AZ for the Polar Express. This is the first year that all the families went and it was a blast!

Santa just entered the train and we were the first to see him!

As always, it was a great trip. A tradition we all love! Hopefully Grammy makes the reservations for next year now!

New Year's Resolution

So one of my many New Year's Resolutions is to TRY to post more on this blog. I feel successful already as January is one of my busiest month and I am posting now! My goal is once a month, but we'll see. Below is a picture of me and the family in Flagstaff. I graduated December 17th with a Masters of Education in School Counseling. It was hard work and I am glad I am done. Hopefully, there will be jobs open for me to apply for. Love you all and Happy New Year!
