Field Trip - Stephen Fite Concert!

February 26,2013 Caroline, Today was a big field trip day with First Place Academy. They really go above and beyond for you and all of the children that attend FPA! You all got to go see Stephen Fite concert at the Alma Performing Arts Center! I am happy to say that Eric and I were able to go with you and your class on this field trip! When we arrived and they let us all in and we got seated on the front row. You and all of your classmates were able to dance around to the fun music that was playing before the concert began. Once the concert began there was lots of singing and dancing that you got to join in on! It was a Journey on a Pirate ship with Captain Stephen and it was a great concert. You were up doing the moves to the songs and singing along! It feels my heart with joy to just sit back and watch you enjoying music and dance so much. We had a Wonderful time with you and your class! You are a special little Girl and I am so Thankful for First Place Academy! What an amazing Preschool it is! I love you Sweet Girl! Momma Katie

Family Sleepover!

February 24, 2013 Caroline, It was A Family Sleepover Weekend! Clint,Peevy, amd Gracyn came down for the weekend. It had been so long since we have all gotten together for some quality Time! You and Gracyn were so happy to see each other and played the entire night! This was the first time you were both together in a while and both you were talking about the Baby Brothers with lots of excitement! This is funny to me because I know it won't be long before the little brothers are going to all over the place trying to invade your "Little Girl Time!" The Daddies enjoyed their time together and Peevy and I certainly enjoyed our visit! Our family sleepover will soon be changing when these two little boys arrive! I am looking forward to our future Family Sleepovers and get togethers! Love you, Momma Katie!

A Little Valentine's

February 14,2013 Happy Valentine's Day Caroline, We had a nice low key Valentine's celebration at home this year. We actually celebrated the weekend before since Daddy Eric was working on Valetine's Day and in my opionion it is always better to just celebrate on a weekend.We worked on Valentine's for your Class at Schools during the day. We made these really cute Valentine Robots out of Juice boxes! They were a little bit harder to actually make then you or I realized! But We did it and they turned out great! An Army of Valentine Robots!

Valentine Treat Bags!

We also made super cute little treat bags with a heart bubble ring, Smarties, and a big sticker in side! These also turned out great! The valentine making took up most of our afternoon! Then it was time to begin cooking and baking for our little Valentine's meal!We started with the dessert. We decided to make ooey gooey butter bars and mix in Valentine colored M&m's. In my head this seemed like a great idea, however once the m&m's were mixed in I realized that you weren't going to be able to see them.

Oh well at least they would still be tasty and you did most of the work on them too! We popped them into the oven. I went to check on them and sadly droped the pan and almost all of them spilled out into the oven! Major Valentine Desert FAIL! We were able to save enough of the mix to make seven. I think this turned out to be the ugliest desert ever but you were still happy about them and they did taste ok. Once Daddy got home we surprised him with a fun and cheesy Valentine's table set up and a nice dinner with some ugly hearts for dessert!

We had a great time just being together and celebrating the Day of Love! You and Daddy Eric are my Valentine's year round! I love you both so much! br /> Love,Momma Katie
