Dashing Through the Snow
...on a 3-horse open sleight! Reed, Willa, and their parents spent a delightful late-winter afternoon at Highland Forest. After taking a hike, we embarked on a sleigh ride through the woods. We soaked in the final days of this remarkable winter and enjoyed sharing treats with the horse following the ride. All was fun, even with the "tinky fell" left behind by the horses, as noted repeatedly by Willa.
Monster Jammin'
For three months, Reed and Willa have been looking forward to this event and it did not disappoint! Reed and Willa's dad summed up our fabulous night at Monster Jam with the following comment:
"Megan can't stop laughing. Reed is mesmerized and terrified. And Willa is so flat out excited about Monster Jam that I'm frankly a little bit scared..."
King and Queen of the Mountain
Reed and Willa (and Stella, too) were still playing on top of the giant pile of snow last week. As much as we are all looking forward to a spring thaw, we will certainly miss having our own mountain right in our front yard!

On Stage for Morning Program
Reed's school has a weekly assembly called "Morning Program" and it's he'd each Friday morning. All of the kindergarteners, first graders and second graders attend and parents are welcome in the audience. The visiting author series (recently the author of the "Pete the Cat" series came) and other performers often attend are on stage for the programs. Also each week, different musical groups from with in the school perform (this week the xylophone group performed) and the school staff also discuss target learning and character traits. And each week one class is selected to go on stage and perform songs and dances that highlight the classroom community and academics. This week, Reed's class was on stage and they performed their "rise and shine" morning song, a song focusing on counting by 10s and "Go Bananas", a classroom favorite! I was able to video record the performance but cannot post it here (too long) but here's Reed and his classmates on stage post-performance for a class photo!
