This week the kindergarten classes made gingerbread houses and since they were looking for family volunteers Daddy joined in the fun. Stella was super excited to show it to me when I made it home, and Claire was super excited to eat the candy off it!
Silly girl! Making happy memories with daddy :)
Friday night we gathered with our church family for a fellowship meal and to help decorate the church for the holiday season. The elders allowed the children to get really involved and they had a great time. Claire spent more time decorating herself than she did the sanctuary though!This weekend we ventured out to choose a Christmas tree as a family. We were indecisive so it took a while but we finally chose one. It turned out to be much wider than trees we've bought in the past so it took some work securing it into the tree stand but daddy figured it out! We had a fun time Sunday night trimming the tree!
On Saturday afternoon we headed to Chateaugay for a basketball tournament to watch daddy's team play a game. It turned out the girls were more interested in the new cheerleading team but they stayed busy/entertained for the whole game which was a new milestone!
Sunday afternoon we headed to the mall arcade for a birthday party for one of Claire's classmates. The family was very generous to include Stella too and the girls had a great time. Stella hit the jackpot while playing a game and won 100 tickets! Lucky girl! We spent a little bit of time wandering around the mall afterward and the girls enjoyed a special treat of scooting around the hallways on the new mall critters. Daddy joined in the fun too (good thing, since Claire really isn't ready to steer on her own yet!).
