Okay, by the time you're reading this post, it won't be December (or 2017 anymore). But, we had a lot of fun this December and I really wanted to share. You can check out the photos here.
Ballet
For those that don't know, I love Ballet. I mean, I really really love ballet. I concentrate really hard, I practice at home and I have a lot of fun dancing. Every December, my ballet school (Classical Ballet Academy) puts on several productions of the Nutcracker. This year, I was a Spanish Chocolate.

Visitors
To add to the holiday fun, Nana & Papa came up for a visit. It's always fun to have visitors - but it's more fun when it's family!
Nana & Papa also wanted to go to Mt Hood. I guess they don't see enough snow in Milwaukee. Either way, it was super snowy at Mt Hood and you could not see the pretty scenery because the clouds were close into the mountain. But, there was a lot of snow and we got to play in the snow after eating lunch at Timberline Lodge. I love snow.
Visit Dad at Work
While Phin and I had 2 weeks off for winter break, Dad only had one. So, we went to visit him at his new-ish office. I knew he worked with printers, but they also make computers and had a lot of fun stuff like Ping Pong, Boccie ball, shuffleboard and virtual reality. No wonder he likes going to the office.
In the photo above, I'm wearing virtual reality (VR) glasses and going on a roller coaster ride through a gold mine. It was really fun and then the ride jumped off the tracks and flew into the air. AWESOME!
The first week of winter break was so much fun... for the 2nd week, we went on a road trip to California (more on that in the next blog).
Lots of Love,
Amelia
