kate is basically elsa from Frozen.

Who is a big fan of FROZEN?  Well you must not have daughters if you aren't.  We have watched it and the you tube clips we can find on repeat for the past several days.  Kate and I decided that she could very well be Elsa.

reason 1: Did you know that FROZEN is based on a Han's Christen Anderson story that is set in Denmark. Look it up!  and that Kate's predominate heritage is Danish.  In a big way.  Not only is Jake's family predominately Danish, some of them even speak it, and her grandparents are currently on a mission in the Denmark mission.  My mormon heritage is largely Danish as well. (the Disney film may not take place in Denmark but since the folk tale it is based on is we are counting this)

reason 2:  She has white blonde hair, giant cartoon big eyes, blue eyes and a heart shaped face.  Just like Elsa.

reason 3: Kate has several great great grandmothers named Elsa (who are Danes)  so many on both Jake and my side that it was almost Bethany's name.

reason 4: she loves ice.... just like her mom. .

reason 5:  she is an awesome big sister who is loved so much by her little sisters.  Just like Elsa.

reason 6:  Kate was a queen for Halloween this past year- in which she choose a purple cape before we knew anything about the movie.  kate points out that elsa is wearing a purple cape when she becomes queen so she was dressed up as Elsa becoming a queen for Halloween and didn't even know it.

Kate also points out though that her personality is more like Anna- "silly and crazy and not so royal"

We have had a movie watching few days.  Sick kids and a husband away on business means limitless tv.  We were having a great time watching you tube clips of all the songs together tonight on my laptop, until I slipped and it fell and hit the hearth.  the screen cracked and broke.  Boo hiss. So i have no computer anymore.  I pretty confident it can be replaced and that all the data is still on the hard drive un injured... I hope anyways, hence I am not having a full on melt down and only irritated.  Oh well.  Marianne, Sam and Kate all dancing and mimicking Elsa in "let it go" were fun while it lasted.  Mari even asks for "Frozen" by name now. 


now if only I could learn to do fancy Elsa braids for her.
