Dance, Dance, Dance

Sofia is so busy with dance these days, it seems that is all we do!  She has 3 hours of dance on Saturdays – 2 of which are for the Nutcracker.  I took a moment this Saturday to snap a few pictures of her before class started.

Zoo Field Trip Fun

Today Sofia’s class went to the zoo on their first field trip of the year.  It was fun – but hot.  AZ Fall has left us and it was 95 degrees outside.  Other than that a good time was had by all.  Something I thought was interesting – children could not bring and money and no food or gift shop items could be purchased – by children or parents.  WOW – seems like these days we sure do have to worry about hurting everyone’s feelings a little too much.  I was responsible for keeping up with Sofia and one other child, however, we ended up staying with 2 other groups so it was 3 adults and 6 children – pretty easy stuff!

The last picture I took of the day – she was mad at a friend that “cheated” in a coin dropping game in a well.

Tons of Halloween Fun

Wow, what a week!  Sofia had a pumpkin walk, trick-or-treating at my workplace, trick or treating with friends, a trip to the pumpkin patch and a Halloween party!  It was an exhausting week!  Lots of pics below of all our fun!

Pumpkin Patch fun – though I was furious because my camera batteries did not last long! Ugh!
