The culmination of Nora's GOTR program was scheduled to run on the Red Jacket trail from the Y yesterday, but due to blizzard conditions it ended up being rescheduled for the indoor track and shortened to 1 mile - 17 times around that little track! The younger sibling race, the Santa Sprint, was two laps and included kids 2-8. Both girls were gazelle-like. Nora pretended to be a prancing reindeer the whole way with a big smile on her face, while Klara was all business. Of course we forgot the camera in our rush to leave the house, but you can see them here after we got home. Luckily the Y is just a block away from their school so we didn't have to leave the neighborhood to get there in the blizzard.
Notice the Playmobile play sets on the bay window.
This is the third year Mona's family has supplied the girls with these German advent calendars. The kids LOVE them! Every morning they race out of bed to see what little item is waiting to join the set. This year Nora has a paleontological site and Klara has Santa's office, complete with naughty and nice list! (Also note the GOTR became GTOR when Nora decorated her cape!)

OMG Karen - you just don't age!! You look exactly the same as when we were Cobbers!! Ann Lindblom, Brenda Mathison and I are planning a "Hen Party" in Manhattan this spring or summer - don't rule it out. It would be great to spend some time together!! Paula
