Thank you to Ms. Karen's Class for the Pictures!

In November, Siren and I had the opportunity to Skype with Ms. Karen's class in Canada. We had so much fun! Recently we received some pictures that Ms. Karen sent us and we couldn't wait to share them!


Speaking of pictures, we really love the picture below! This is a picture of a special place in Ms. Karen's classroom. Didn't the student do a great job? The fire safety dogs and I love it!
