November fun

November at school seemed to fly by! Kennedy and Kaitlyn attended an American Girl party at the beginning of November.  They had a wonderful time and had a blast looking around the AG store again.  Such a fun (and busy!) place!

 The girls at the party

 Kaitlyn, Payton and Anna Grace

 Kennedy and "Saige", her doll.

 They ate and did all things American Girl. Perfect party for these girls!

November 11 was Veteran's Day. We had a special program at school.

 Jillian is in the top left corner waving her flag. She was not a bit shy on stage!

 PK and Kindergarten

 The twins were harder to get a picture of (they were across the room from me). 

Kennedy is on the far right.

 Kaitlyn is on the 2nd row from the bottom in the middle.

On the last day before break, Jillian's class had their Thanksgiving feast. 

 She chose to be an Indian

 It was during my lunchtime so I was able to sneak away and attend their feast. :)

So much to be thankful for!

Halloween 2014

 Thursday, October 30th, Jillian's PK class had a Halloween party (not school related). One of the mom's invited the class over. Jillian had so much fun with her little friends.

On Halloween, the girls got all dressed up and were very excited.

 Grrrr!

 Tony decided to get all "tatted" up for Halloween this year. (not)

 Our Cul-de-sac ate together  (Frito pie and hot dogs!) and then set off for trick or treating.We had to get a group picture first. Everyone is getting so big!

 Silly picture!

 Trick or treat!

Famiy photo time!

October

 Here is a quick overview of October!

My blogging has been lacking lately!

Jillian's teacher, Mrs. Gerschoffer, had her birthday and I had a free moment to go in and be with Jillian during the party. She was excited.

A couple of weeks ago, my neighborhood had a garage sale. As my mom and I were driving around we came upon this street sign! How fun!

The next day, we went to the pumpkin patch

 Kaitlyn, Jillian, Kennedy

 Bright sun!

Last Friday evening was Trunk or Treat at our church. Jillian is going to be Batgirl for Halloween, but the twins have different costumes coming. For that night they were princesses.

They had live "Frozen" music going on! Amazing talent!

It was the 50th day of school today! What a fun day in Kindergarten!

Beautiful weekend

 We have been so very busy!   Friday was "hat day" at school! (Jillian had her "hat day" on Thurs. since she only goes 3 days. I forgot to get a picture of her. :(

 I managed to get of picture of Kaitlyn and Kennedy with their cute hats on! (They were actually headbands with little top hats attached to them.  They loved them!

 After school on Friday was American Heritage Girls.

She is standing with her friends, Elizabeth and Anna Grace.

On Saturday, their troop was marching in a parade! They were soooo excited!

 Before the parade

 Tony took the girls and stayed with them during the parade.  He got a few pictures for me!

 Kennedy marching (with friend, Elizabeth)

 Kaitlyn, with friends, Anna Grace and Skye

After the parade was over, all the girls ate lunch at CFA and then went back to Skye's house to play outside in the beautiful weather!

 Playing with the baby chicks!

 Cute!

Meanwhile, I was at home with this cutie!

 She had fun roller skating, riding her bike and just enjoying the weather! It was such a pretty day.

This and That

 Things have been very busy and I haven't had much time to update.  We have a very busy schedule and the girls have a lot of things going on. On Mondays the twins have piano lessons. They are enjoying this a lot.  On Wednesdays all the girls go to tumbling and on Fridays the twins go to American Heritage Girls.  (Like girl scouts...but with a Biblical basis)

 Kaitlyn practicing

 I wanted to throw in a picture of these cute cookies I got from one of my students!! Adorable!

Picture day was last Thursday at school and it just so happened that Jillian AND Kaitlyn were star of the day/week.  I was able to go to Kaitlyn's class to see her presentation but I didn't get to go to Jillian's.

 This wasn't taken last Thurs, but this is the dress Jillian wore for picture day (minus the hat). She presented a little "All about me" book and was able to take her Bitty Baby to school for show and tell.

 Kaitlyn's teacher, Mrs. Prado, invited me to come to Kaitlyn's presentation.  I loved listening to her answer all her classmate's questions.

 Explaining her poster

 Doing a great job presenting!

 She got to bring in lots of different items from home. She wanted to bring her Bible. Sweet.

 She chose this bear to show the class.

The next day, Tilly the Tooth came to visit the PK-2nd graders. Kennedy was one of the lucky kids to "brush" Tilly's tooth!

What fun!
