Happy New Year!!

Playing School & Recess

Lucas was the teacher and gave the girls notebooks to write down the answers to the questions he asked . . . they played this for a long time one day!



Kate wanted to play too . . .and they were nice enough to include her.

Lucas wrote out the "schedule" for the classroom day on the upper left corner .. .

Break - time for recess!!  

We walked with the girls in their new red wagon to the little park by my parents house!

Reichenberger Family Gift Exchange!









Home for the Holidays . . .

My siblings and their families all met in Mac Town for a long weekend to celebrate a belated Christmas with our folks!  Molly could hardly wait for Friday to get here!!


I took this photo within 5 minutes of everyone arriving!!  Molly & Isabella were already in dress up clothes and playing with Lucas downstairs!

Kate kept herself busy exploring a new place! So much to see and crawl under and over!


Lots of visiting, eating and drinking!



Kate was fascinated by Aunt Sarah & Uncle Mark spinning quarters!  She kept saying, WOOOW!


My Dad read the girls a bedtime story . . .

And so did Uncle Brian!

Kate was up before everyone always . . . 




The big kids made pizzas for dinner one night - 





Kate "barked" at the dogs next door a lot . . .


The guys watched a lot of football downstairs . . .

Kate was fascinated by Grandpa's beer


Kept putting her finger inside it - my Dad was cracking up!



Grandma JoJo & Grandpa Don babysat Kate while Mike and I took Molly to her first movie EVER - with my sister and her family!  Molly was SOOO excited to see a movie on a huge screen and get popcorn!

We saw FROZEN - which was the most adorable movie for her first cinema experience - we LOVED it!  As soon as got back to my parents' house - the girls played the movie for 2 hours - reenacting every scene and song!
