I Like It Hot

A little trip to the Mount Princeton Hot Springs on the last day of 2011.

Pretty Soon

Reagan had a tough day because of some early trouble with Sydney. But after we got that behind us, I tried to focus on just letting her have fun on the skis today. This involved a lot of straight downhill fast! That's her thing. She is getting the hang of it. I really hope to have her on her own this season. But I kind of enjoy getting to spend the time with her as well.

Snack time! Reagan pounded a Hershey bar and an apple juice then made the final run of the day.

She told me that when she is 7, she will ride the lift with Sydney and not need me. OK, I guess. I still have Kayla to train.

Skate Date

We took a family skate night at the Leadville ice rink. Lots of craziness. Such a fun time.

Back On Skis

Reagan, Sydney and I went skiing at Ski Cooper today. Its such a great family spot. Reagan had our kid's skis so we had to wait in line forever to get Syd's rentals. I try my best to minimize time from car to first run because it just seems to drain the enthusiasm. Reagan's was going quick. She really wasn't that keen on skiing this season. She always takes a big amount of coaxing to do anything. Then she usually loves it and cries when its time to stop.

This season, I have Reagan wearing a backpack with two tow ropes coming off of it. I hold these and ski 6 feet behind her. This keeps her from flying downhill. I can also turn her right or left to help guide her as she learns the side to side action. It went pretty well.

Unfortunately, I ran over her once as she fell in front of me and I couldn't react fast enough. Now, I ski slightly to one side.

I literally had my hands full all day with Sydney and Reagan and never managed to get an action shot of Reagan. My bad. But she wouldn't let me leave her long enough to get it.

Sledding

Reagan likes to sled. FAST!

Looks Familiar

Christmas Program 2011

Tooth Two

After the long agony of tooth number 1 taking forever to come out, this one just popped out at school. Reagan came home with it in a baggie.

Halloween 2011

The favorite holiday of the year is here. And the costume of the year....

Early in the month Reagan had decided she wanted to be Pikachu for Halloween. Pika-Who? I had no idea who this was so it took a little bit of research and a lot of searching to find this get up. Lucky for us we found one hidden in a huge pile of costume cast-offs at our 10th store. This girl was definitely lucky to find this one.

Group shot of the year.

We once again had the Sandoval gang over for pizza and trick or treating. Looks like this is becoming a tradition. I learned that trying to get a group shot of kids who are ready for trick or treating is quite difficult. Not too bad.

Nation's Day

The month of October at our school is dedicated to educating the kids on different cultures. Each class picks a different country and learns everything there is to know about the cultures, geography, etc on their chosen country. This year Reagan would be studying France. This means lots of crescents, grapes, and cheese for snacks. And lots of French paintings for crafts. Here is Reagan's rendition of one famous French painting. The name, not sure? I always knew she was an artist.

On the last day of the month our school would celebrate the Nations with a school wide Nations Day celebration. First thing in the morning we were invited to the class presentations on their various countries. Reagan was all dressed up in her French attire including the beret. Adorable!

The final event of the day would be the Parade of Nations. The kids paraded the school hallways and outside perimeter to show off their costumes. Always a kid fun filled day at our school.
