The Many Faces of our Children!

Yesterday I asked August if he could get some pictures of the girls. Emily was very cooperative and he was able to get some good pics without having to take too many. Audrey on the other hand decided she didn't want to cooperate. She wanted to be her silly self. These are just some of their pics. The one picture is of Audrey trying to take a picture of Emily. And the mark under Audrey's lip is from her crashing into the wall (for some reason the past week there have been many ouchies!)


Enjoy!

Emily's Preschool Christmas Party

Emily's preschool class has been preparing for a while for a little presentation for the parents. August and I were both able to join her last week and she was so excited that we are able to go to school with her! The kids did a great job singing songs for us.




As part of the presentation, the kids and parents had some homework ahead of time. We were given a vest made out of paper grocery bags and we had to decorate it. August and I came up with a number of suggestions for her and she finally settled on being a tray of cookies. So as you can see from her vest, she was a tray of cookies. August made the cookie trays, Emily and I cut out the shapes and then Emily decorated the cookies (I'm still finding glitter around the house!). You can't see the back of the vest, but there was a cookie tray back there just like the front side.

For craft/snack we each got to ice and decorate a sugar cookie.

We enjoyed spending the morning with Emily and her classmates!

Audrey's Birthday Party - #2

My family was unable to come up for Audrey's birthday party, so we celebrated after Thanksgiving with them. My mom did a great job making the Big Bird cake.

Thanks for the gift - especially the noisy ones :)
