Finally Back....

Yes, I know I haven't written in a long time. It's not that I've been busy, or exciting things haven't been going on, but rather that after being on the computer at home all day for work, I don't really think of how else I can be on the computer. That's why today the idea of doing a blog pot came to me. I had to go into the office.

Here are a few pictures of what's been going on with us Hodson girls since October.

 This program in Nicole's school is all about being a Peacebuilder. They have this cute little song and everything. Well, monthly they have their school Peacebuilders. Back in Nov I believe (sorry, I don't recal off hand and if I look it up I probably wont come back to finish the post, so you get what you get I guess.) I, of course, was so proud of my little Nicole. <3 .="" a="" able="" also="" as="" aside="" because="" but="" camera="" close="" double="" excited="" for="" get="" go="" good="" her="" i="" it="" lucky="" me="" mom="" nicole="" notice="" on="" parents="" part.="" pictures="" planning="" praise="" pretty="" s="" school="" second="" set="" she="" so="" step="" super="" that="" the="" their="" there.="" there="" time="" to="" up="" was="" well.="" with="">

Seriously, isn't she just the most beautiful little girl in the world? Wow, to think in almost 10 years she can date. Yikes! Well, this picture is at the Railroad Museum/Harvey House in Barstow. For those into Railroads, it's a pretty neat museam.

Nicole and I were able to go to Disney on Ice. Thank you Dad for the help, you have no idea how much Nicole loved this! She was so upset when it ended she was crying. Nicole really didn't understand why the show couldn't go on for all of the princesses. It was great, well, not the crying, but how much Nicole enjoyed the show.

Nicole's school has a lot of special days. ABC parade, hat day, pajama day...This is a picture of how Nicole dressed for California Snow Day. Now, we live in San Diego. It was about 70 that day. But hey, California Snow Day was never suppose to involve actual snow! They had snowball fights with rolled up balls of newspaper, ice skating with paper plates on the carpets, and had hats, mittens, scarves, and anything else for snow. It was lots of fun for the kids.

Nicole has been in ballet for almost 18 months now. At the beginning of this year she advanced to the older girls class. Look at all these ballarinas!! They all look so great in, what, 3rd position?

Dr. Suess Day is another day Nicole's school does. Here's my Cat in the Hat with her favorite book. It was great seeing all of the kindergartners dressed as cat in the hat.

 And here is Nicole on Pajama day! Yeah, lots of "days" at school. I think it goes down dramatically in first grade, but I'll fins out for sure in 6 months I guess. It's fun seeing how excited Nicole gets for all of these days though.

Old Town San Diego is also fun. I don't remember the donkeys before, but off the picture to the right are 2 donkeys. Of course this fake donkey was better since you can ride and "steer" this one.

And to end this blog post here is Nicole version of Merry Christmas, Love Nicole. This is definately something I'm going to treasure forever.

I always have the intention on updating this thing weekly or something more frequently than every 6 months, but alas, I do most of my Nicole updates on Facebook. I know my invitations for this blog have gone out to many who love Nicole and are not on my facebook lists, so I really should keep this going strong. I should have more photos after Easter, and lots of time during confrence weekend, so here's hoping I get another post in within 30 days!!
