Snow much fun!

This hardly ever happens here on Ocracoke Island where I live, but recently we got a BUNCH of snow!

See how pretty it was in our back yard?



Of course, we had to go out and play in it! I loved scooping it up with my shovel.









In this picture, you can really get a sense for how deep it was.



Aunt Kati said we should build a snowman, but I told her I wanted to build a snow princess. So we built a snow princess.



We called her Snow Belle.



Yes, we even put Aunt Kati's tiara on her.



The snow was mostly gone the next day, and completely gone the day after that. But it was fun while it lasted!

Play time

One day after church, I noticed the small playground near the school. It used to be on the other side of the school, but they moved it. I was excited to see it there, so I asked Aunt Kati if we could come back later. And we did!

I love slides!









And I also like climbing on this purple dinosaur!

Family time at OCC

I have lots of fun on weekdays at my school, Ocracoke Child Care. And now, I get to have even more fun one Saturday a month - and Aunt Kati and Uncle John get to come with me! So on January 15th, we went there in the morning for the first Family Fun Time. We made pinecone birdfeeders.

Aunt Kati helped me spread the peanut butter on the pinecones. I also ate some! (The peanut butter, not the pinecones.)



My friends Payce and Griffin were there and also had fun making birdfeeders.



After we put the peanut butter on, we rolled the pinecone in the birdseed.



I really liked the texture of it.



We got some on our hands!



After we washed our hands, Aunt Kati read me a story.



It was a fun morning!

Camaro!

Daddy came for a visit, and brought me my Christmas presents. One of them was a CAR! Okay, not a real one, but it does go, and I like to drive it down the street!

It was really cold when Daddy was here, so I got all bundled up in my coat to go outside to see what my surprise was. Boy, was I excited when I saw it! I ran right up to it...



...and climbed right in!



Here I go!



Megan helped me steer...



...and she and Daddy walked along with me to make sure I went in basically a straight line.



That was so much fun!



I also just like looking at my car!

Disney trip blog 15 (last one!) - so long, and Santa!

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. On our last day at Disney World, we took a few photos around the hotel...

There was a fun Mickey car in the arcade.


I was pretty good at this popcorn game!



I loved the water shooting three caballeros at the big pool.



I thought this fountain was pretty neat, too.



Ariel, Flounder, and Sebastian were hanging out at the other pool...



...which is shaped like a piano! (The big pool is shaped like a guitar.)



I played on the playground for a while.



Then Uncle John and I posed for a picture outside the building where our room was.



And I posed for a picture with the Christmas tree...



...and then we went to see Santa!



I gave him five!

Disney trip - blog 14 - I almost forgot!

I almost forgot to tell you about Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. It's a special event that happens at night at Magic Kingdom, only a few times a year, during the holiday season. We went, of course!

One of the great things about being in the Magic Kingdom after dark this time of year is you get to see Cinderella Castle all lit up!



(Okay, Aunt Kati admits that she didn't take that photo. It was taken by one of Disney's photographers and came on our Photopass CD.) But she did take this one!



Mommy and I went for a ride in a racecar. They gave me a driver's license! (Don't worry, it's only good at Tomorrowland Speedway.)



We danced at Cosmic Ray's Jingle Dance and Play party.



We rode on the People Mover...



...and got to see Buzz Lightyear!



Then we went on Buzz's ride, the Space Ranger Spin.



After that, we visited Minnie's house. I liked her microwave...



...and her chair!



Aunt Kati says we have to post this picture just because it's cute.



We went to Mickey's house too...it was all decorated for Christmas!





I had fun playing in the play area...





And then I was tired and ready for bed!
