❆❆❆Happy Winter!❄❄❄
It's finally time for a family, as in the Kindergarten and FAMILY part of the blog, update!
After a later start than anticipated (appt for mom that went looooong!), we made it up to The Knife River near Two Harbors for their Julebyen (Christmas Village) experience! We spent the entire 4° Saturday outdoors shopping and eating! Then we continued the shopping and eating down in Duluth for their bigger and busier Christmas Village. And of course a quick stroll into the Lake before coming home!
We didn't get a tree from the Superior National Forest again this year... sigh. It's been a family tradition to trudge miles into the deep dark winter forest to get the perfect imperfect tree!
Last year we were blizzarded out.
This year we simply didn't have enough time.
Adulting is hard!
Now back to kindergarten:
Our gingerbread theme is my favorite!
We opened a gingerbread bake shop in our dramatic play area!
The igloo is shaping up nicely! Thank you for all the donations!
