Last night we had a meal together at the kitchen table. i am sad to say that this has not happend in a really long time. with donnie and i both working, both of us having 2 callings, the girls in piano, and the many million other things going on it tends to not happend ever! it was wonderful to catch up with everyone and here the funny things going on with the girls at school. Skylar has her picture retakes this week(those of you that dont remember she had a fat lip and nose from a bad fall at school the day before her pictures last month). then of course next week is thanksgiving! After dinner the girls wrote there letters to santa, which consisted of camers, squeakies,clothes,ds games, and Taylor asked for a robe(because she has never owned one before) this year is going to be a christmas with just us, and as much as the thought of that makes me really sad that we wont have any family over, i love having those christmas's every now and again. I love my family so much and would want nothing more than to just spend that day with them.
This is skylars party. she made a placemat that says skylar is thankful for mom. it almost made me cry when i saw it. im sure all of the kids said there mom, but it definatly made me feel loved! they had a HUGE feast for there party. we came and helped hand out food, taped down the placemats, and refilled cups.
they made the cutest little indian shirts and hats, and then they played duck duck goose, but called it indian indian pilgrim.
isnt she the prettiest little indian ever! a mom that was there helping came up to me and told me she has twin boys, one is in sky's class and one is in another class. she said they come home everyday and tell her how pretty skylar is. they say, sometimes she has a one braid and sometimes she has 2 braids, she is just so pretty all the time! the mother thought is was so sweet they they noticed the details of her hair, ha ha!
