January and February Little Things

Emily and I were so excited to get to celebrate our college roommate's birthday with her this month. It's hard to believe we are all turning 40 this year!  It was great to visit and catch up with several of my Aggie friends at her party. 

Lilly was thrilled to be chosen as Super Grizzly for her class for the second time this year!  She got to help Ms. White with morning announcements and was recognized for being a great student!  We are so proud of her hard work this year in kindergarten!

Parker helped Robert celebrate his 10th birthday. 

We celebrated the 100th Day of School this month.  Lily's class did a lot of fun activities including drawing a picture of what they thought they'd look like when they turned 100!

Eden forgot to close her bedroom door one morning and Maggie too full advantage of it!  I think she slept on Eden's bed all day!

Kaden invited Parker to see Dennis Lee, a ventriloquist, at his church. They had dinner, ate cotton candy, and enjoyed a fun show!

They even got a selfie with Dennis Lee!  

We had Open House at our school this month.  All of the teachers dressed up like their favorite storybook characters. The specialists chose the book Click, Clack Moo. I was Farmer Brown and the others were the cows!  I love my team and my school!

I am still working out with Camp Gladiator three times a week and made it to my 50th check-in. I am so proud of my hard work and feel better than I have in a long time!

Little Dribblers

Parker and Eden both just finished up their Little Dribblers basketball season. They both had great coaches and learned a lot. 

Eden's team participated in a local tournament this weekend. They lost in the second round but were awarded the sportsmanship trophy. Eden was so proud of her trophy!

Coach Stephanie was so patient with Eden and taught her so much about basketball. I hope Eden will play again next season.

Eden's teacher, Mrs. Humphreys, was so sweet to come watch one of her games. We have the best teachers!  

Somehow it didn't get any pictures of Parker's team or coach. I'll definitely have to be better about that next year!  

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!  

The kids all had their Valentine's parties at school today. Lily and I made a cute butterfly box last week to hold all of her valentines. 

Her party was pretty low key but she had fun! (See the little boy next to her in the picture?  He threw up all over the floor about five minutes after I took this picture. It definitely put a little bit of a damper on the party!  Poor thing- I felt so sorry for him!)

Eden's teacher always does a Clifford the Big Red Dog party on Valentine's Day. Her class does a Clifford author study during the month of February so she incorporates it into the party. They eat their treats (including dog bone cookies) out of dog bowls and drink Big Red. It was a lot of fun!

Eden and Carson 

Eden and Reagan 

Parker's class had a pizza party. I had to go back and forth between all three parties so I'm not sure what else they did! But Parker seemed happy at the end of the day so I'm sure he had a fun time!
