Will You Be Mine, Little Valentine?

Judson's preschool Valentine party fell on a different day than the girls parties, so I was able to attend and help with all three.  Since I am room mom for both of the girls and had to do lots of shopping and planning for both of their parties, it was nice to just bring one item for Jud's and to show up and help with whatever the teachers needed help with.  Despite all the work, the girls' class parties went smoothly and seemed like a lot of fun for all the kids.  I was so happy to spend this precious time with my three little Valentines!

Kendall's 8th birthday

Kendall chose to have her party at home this year with just a couple of close friends.  It was a pizza and pajamas themed party where they did lots of things you would do at a slumber party, just without the sleeping over part (except for Katherine from church who lives in South Ft Worth).  We started off by letting the girls paint and decorate a frame and then each one had a turn in the "photo booth" with Kendall.  Later on while the girls watched a movie and the frames were dry, I printed out a picture for each girl to put in her frame.  We had some cute props and the photos turned out great.  After their craft, the girls had some pizza and fruit and then we played a few games like Twister, freeze dance, telephone, and made an outfit for Kendall out of toilet paper.   Next came opening presents and oreo ice cream pie, followed by a movie.   There were lots of giggles throughout the party and I think all the girls, including Kendall, had a blast!

Basketball Club performance at Byron

Kendall was eligible this year to be in Granger's Basketball Club and to participate in the half time performance at one of the Byron Nelson basketball games.  She had fun learning all the neat dribbling skills and especially the dance-type moves.  She was all smiles during the performance and did a great job keeping control of the ball.
