Earrings!!

We have had a busy weekend, but to top things off Kaleigh and Cassidy got their ears pierced!! 

 Kaleigh wanted them done, but needed to watch Cassidy go first!!

They are already talking about what kind of earrings they want when they can change them. 

Trampoline

We had gotten the girls a trampoline for Christmas, but were waiting until it warmed up to put it together. Last weekend, Bryan put it up and they have loved jumping on it!! 

I haven't done a post in quite a long time. I've felt extra busy at school and now with the girls beginning t-ball, I don't think we'll have any down time. Several weeks ago we joined my parents at Outback for lunch. Mom just happened to be able to snap a nice picture of us all on the first try!! 

Bracelets

I am often up to date on the newest trends and fashions of elementary school kids because of being a teacher. The current "hot" item is making bracelets with colored bands. I have students in my class who have plastic containers with dividers to keep the different colors separate. They have bracelets and necklaces. I've also seen kids at school make bands for their glasses and pencil grippers. I think their creations are endless. 

Today, Kaleigh and Cassidy went into town with Carol to run some errands and they came back with a rainbow loom and bands. We looked up directions on the computer on how to make a starburst bracelet. This is how Bryan has spent his afternoon and evening!! :)

Kaleigh is currently in the process of working on one with Bryan for a friend of hers in class!!

Twister

Yesterday we bought the game Twister. The girls (and I) enjoyed playing while Bryan called out the moves!

First Tooth Lost

Yesterday, Kaleigh lost her first tooth, and then really lost her tooth. Kaleigh had been playing with it and twisting it all around for the past few days but was hoping it would come out on Christmas. Yesterday, Bryan helped to wiggle it out. After having it in a bag to show to people some how it was not in the bag come evening. Needless to say she was very disappointed and sad. She wrote a note to the Tooth Fairy and drew a picture of her tooth. We weren't sure if the Tooth Fairy would come without a tooth under the pillow, but she did. 

Christmas Tree

This morning we went to get our Christmas Tree. We were planning on going last Sunday, but it was snowing. 

Now it's time to decorate!! :)
