Just had to share

Liliana was in her room today and asked to get on her horse. She now looks so big on the horse, but I took pictures because she figured out how to rock it back and forth.

Memories that last a life time-Priceless.
I found this craft project on another blog that I follow and just had to try it. It was simple and easy and relatively cheap. I had too find the glass ornaments at Micheal's. The best part was seeing Liliana smile and hearing Marco say that it was a pretty cool art project :) Since we only have 4 kids in our class I am going to take the remainder of the ornaments and let them decorate them. Here are pictures from the craft project:

Christmas Art

So I got this idea from a fellow Kindergarten teacher last year and just ha to try it this year with Liliana. We created a reindeer using her feet and hand prints. Her feet where the reindeer's face and her hands the antlers. I think it came out supper cute, we are going to make it an ornament and place it on the tree. Here are a few pictures

Sugar Cookies

So with the holidays right around the corner I thought it would be fun to bake sugar cookies. I tried a batch and they didn't turn out because I didn't follow the recipe, silly me! The second batch came out great and we had fun decorating them with sprinkles and frosting. Here are a few pictures!


hmm this frosting is yummy

Holiday Perfect

The past weekend Marco and I were extremely lazy, we stayed around the house. We wrapped gifts, finished decorating the Christmas tree and watched House, we are addicted to the show. We placed ribbon around the tree and the gingerbread cookies. Here are a few pictures:
