Let's go to the Movies

Kristyn and I decided to take the girls to their FIRST movie (Princess and the Frog) today and we joked about how we thought we'd be successful if the girls make it thru the first fifteen minutes.....well, they lasted almost the entire movie, just over an hour. Whooo hoooo!!!!! And they really enjoyed it too. Grace was a little chatty so I felt a little bad for the audience but like Kristyn said, it's a Disney movie at 11 am. What do people expect :) We followed up the movie with pizza, yogurt and a trip to the pet store. It's so fun to watch the girls' little friendship grow. Next up, Alvin and the Chipmunks. And a bonus - kids under 3 are free!!

Pathways Christmas Party

We had our church preschool Christmas party on Tuesday. The theme was "Happy Birthday Jesus" and there was tons of crafts, card making, cupcake decorating, pizza eating and storytime. It was so much fun celebrating with our Pathways friends. Grace loves to decorate cupcakes. Here she is blowing out a candle for baby Jesus.

To the North Pole!!!

Grandma and Grandpa took us to the North Pole (in Laguna Niguel) this weekend. Grace saw her FIRST live reindeer and got to pet a 7 month old reindeer baby. This event was so much more than we expected --- there were lots of different Christmas crafts, cookie decorating, games, face painting, santa storytime and a music show. Grace loved it (minus the Santa part of course) and us adults had a great time too!!
