Ooh La La Beauty Spa.....

Annalise checked out a Fancy Nancy book from the library on Friday.
She suggested we re-create our own "FANCY NANCY OOH LA LA BEAUTY SPA".

She did all of the set-up (including the "rose petals"....a.k.a. torn pieces of paper)
and then Avery and I indulged her and treated her to a lovely spa day.


It began with the smushed banana facial....


Next was the manicure....


Followed by the foot soak and pedicure....


And the grand finale....yogurt parfaits (yes, those are martini glasses)....

Ooohhhh La La...... :)

A Visit From Arthur



Annalise's Kindergarten class has a traveling Arthur.
This stuffed Arthur gets to visit each Kindergartner's house for a night, then each student is supposed to write about what Arthur did during his visit.
We kept Arthur busy during his stay and took pictures, too.
This is what we sent back to school with Arthur the next day......

Hi Mrs. Pennylegion’s Class,
I had so much fun going home with Annalise yesterday!
First we went to this place called the YMCA after school program.  We played and played!!!  I made lots of new friends there.
Next we got to Annalise’s house.  We got to watch a show on the iPad!



Then we had a yummy dinner!  It was nachos and salad!
After dinner I helped Annalise with her science homework!  Playing with different kinds of balls is sure fun!



The next thing I knew, it was time for a bath!!!  I got nice and CLEAN!!!

 


We also had a little time to play in Annalise’s room before bed.  I got to take Sadie’s scooter for a spin.  (SAFETY FIRST….Annalise made sure I was wearing a helmet!)





Before we were tucked in bed, we got to read some of my Arthur stories!  I sure love those books!   


Our last thing to do before bed was to feed Annalise’s fish.  They were sure hungry!!!

Finally, Sadie and Sofia (Annalise’s friends) let me have their TOP bunk for the night!  I slept really great!



It was sure a fun night with Annalise!  I can’t wait for my next adventure with another Kindergarten friend!
                                                                                    Love, Arthur

Celebrating Ella

Annalise's BFF Ella turned 5 in November.
We promised a "date day" to celebrate and finally got to do it in January.

Our "date" started at the Jump Around Fun Zone....


These two ran and ran and ran.....jumped and jumped and jumped....slid and slid and slid!!!!


Once they were worn out, we went to Red Robin where Ella was serenaded with their 
AWESOME birthday song!!!!


She felt well celebrated.  We sure do love Ella!

New Year's Eve With Our Besties

We were so excited to get to spend New Year's Eve with Geoff and Robin.
We went to their house and laughed together from the moment we arrived!




Everyone got in on the Just Dance action....



We played Pictionary, too.




I wish they lived closer....


We love our Besties!!!

Happy 2014!!
