Spaceman

Camden has been learning about outer space at school and has become obsessed with it! :)  Here he is sporting his space helmet (made from a gallon milk jug) and a picture Emma drew of him landing on the moon.

And So It Begins....

The reality of our BIG move is really setting in this weekend. Chris has been busy preparing for our express shipment to go out on Tuesday.

 I think I better get used to all these piles! :)

Jamma Heroes

We make sure that kids are asleep and if they have bad dreams, we'll take their bad dreams away and give them good dreams!

Adventurers in the Mountains

Camden didn't always take the easiest route up the sledding hill. We love that he is one determined little boy (who is so cute to watch trying to get on his sled)!

My snow shoeing kids.

Emma loves climbing to the top of big sledding hill.   The hill had some serious moguls that Emma thought were awesome! I'm sorry I didn't zoom in (I thought she'd slide down to me). 

Trollhaugen 2011!

Our Fourth Annual President's Day Weekend Trip to Trollhaugen was a blast!  Beautiful sunny skies, a full moon for night sledding, and too many laughs to count!

Emma and Claire having fun in the snow fort.

 Amber, Chris, and Jack: The Keystone Light Club.

 Someone's not feeling very photogenic right now

 Enjoying a friendly card game...

 Page and Jack brought some Italian wine to toast our big move.

 Alison and Emma sledding on Sunday morning

 A gorgeous day for cross country skiing!

 Snow shoe adventure!

 Emma and Camden did great with snow shoes on for the first time!

 The kids and I headed back to the lodge while Chris, Jack, Page, and Amber continued on (and got a little lost!)

 Enjoying some more games and drinks before dinner!

 Page and Emma :)

Where The Wild Things Are

Emma starred as The Bird Beast in the Litehouse's production of Where the Wild Things Are. She did an amazing job and had a ton of fun. Like any star, when she tripped and rolled over Max during the wild rumpus, Emma just picked herself up and kept going!  

Valentine's Day

Love is in the air at the Kasparek house!  Camden and Emma were both very excited about their Valentine's Day parties at school today.  They were quite busy last night writing on their cards....

 ...and filling up their goodie bags.

 This evening it looked like Halloween with all the candy on our table!

 Camden made Emma a special Valentine...

 Emma decided that we needed to have a "fancy party" and changed into a dress. She requested some "slow dancing music with just instruments" and lead Camden around the dance floor.

 Special Valentine's dinner request: pink chocolate chip pancakes! :)
