Polar Express Party - Nov. 21

Boarders book store had another special event to commemorate the story, Polar Express. They invited all the children to come in their PJ's. We took Hailey with us and had a great time. They read the story to us and then the kids got to color, make a paper chain, and parade around the store with a bell they got to keep. They passed out fancy chocolate milk to all the kids. After we took them across the parking lot to the Nut Tree play area and rode the train there. We let them go on it by themselves. They really liked that.

Friendship Feast - Nov. 19

Carissa and Maia had a fun 2 day Friendship Feast at school. I helped out on one of the days. They each made 2 costumes: pilgrim and Native American. Then their teacher allowed them to choose which costume they wanted to wear for the feast. I love how they each choose a different one. Very reflective of their contrasting personalities.

Fancy Nancy Party - 11/14/09

Boarders book store had a Fancy Nancy Party. Carissa and Maia invited their friend Hailey to come along. We heard the new book, did activities, a parade around the store, and had peppermint hot chocolate and a chocolate chip cookie. We won a book too! It was lots of fun! We had fun seeing some of our friends there too.

Halloween Candy

We did trick or treating downtown the day before Halloween and of course on Halloween night. The girls had fun with Hailey running from house to house and knocking on doors together.
