100 days

February 6th marked Meredith's 100th Day of Kindergarten!  So Jillian and I got to go up and help the kids celebrate!

I helped the kids all make bags with 100 treats in them (10 of 10 kinds of treats)

The kids also all did a project earlier in the week where they decorated a square for a 100 days quilt. Meredith and I went shopping at the Dollar Store to do hers - we brainstormed using balloons for both the 8 and the 9 in her 89, but then when we got there, she chose the big bow and the crepe paper to make the 9 instead - I think it is pretty cute!

Mother Daughter PJ Party

Meredy and I got to attend our first Mother Daughter Pajama party at the Church!  Such a fun event - pizza, crafts and snacks are always a hit!  Then we all went to the Fellowship Hall in our PJs and cuddled up with pillows and sleeping bags to watch the movie, Enchanted.  This girl was so excited to have time for us to bond.  Poor Jillian was not so happy that she didn't get to go yet - I know she is counting down the days until she is in Kinder to get to take part too!

January randomness

As always, my phone is always full of fun pics that I want to share on here but never a real theme - so here are some things that we did in January!

Poor Meredy was super sick at the very end of her Christmas break...followed by Jillian, too.  We had our fair share of laying on the couch days in January.

I apologize for the creepy eyes, but here's a pic from Landon's 5th birthday party - a Superman party!  Landon and the girls all had capes, so the girls also requested that I make some for their dolls, so they all were displaying super powers!

Cute little Meredith ready for her first day back to Kindergarten after Christmas break

One night the girls decided to do a nativity re-enactment with American Girl dolls and hippos playing the main roles - they saved the shepherd and angel parts for themselves!

Meredith loves when we can come have lunch with her at school - Jillian thinks it is pretty great, too!

Hoops

Meredith tried her hand at Basketball this year with our church's Kindergarten basketball league.  These kids were so cute to watch - lots and lots of double dribbling going on.  Lots of running toward the wrong goal.  But whatever - it was still fun! These are pictures from the practice game before they got their gold jerseys, but she still looks pretty professional, if you ask me! 


 Meredith's cheering section!  Daddy and Jillian even made up a cheer to do.
