Our Little Ballerina


Anja is excited because she is old enough for the 'big girl ballet class.' She was in the 3-4.5 year old class and now is in the 4.5-6 year old class. She says the girls are bigger and she just watched on her first day. She is our bashful child. But last week she said '"I was brave and I danced!" Yeah for Anja!

Preparing for Valentine's Day

While Carter and Anja were busy making valentine's for their friends, Fischer was in the family room drawing on the window. Thanks to Oma and Opa Fischer now has window markers and LOVES to draw on the windows...it's great!Carter prepared a lot of valentine's. It was fun this year to make them from scratch. I cut out hearts, the kids glued the red doilies on the paper and decorated with stickers. We put suckers on as the final touch and glued messages on for each friend. We had a fun time.

Anja made sure her hearts were pretty and each was made with love and lots of detail. What a sweet valentine!
