More seven

February 3, 2022

Samantha received a huge stack of presents at her party! That’s what happens when you invite all the girls in the grade! I was so proud of her for getting all of her thank you notes done in only 1 week! Great job, Samantha.

Here she is the day after her birthday heading to school in her new shirt and new headband!

She also did a nice job polishing off the rest of the cookie dough by that weekend too!

Let’s Glow

February 2, 2022

We invited all of the girls in 1st grade and I think we had about 35 girls come to the party. They were all pretty excited dressed up in their neon and white ready to glow and dance! We had face paint, hula hoops, tons of balloons, and an awesome DJ! It was perfect!

There was a surprising amount of drama and tears from a few of the girls! Who knew that much drama would come from 6 and 7 year olds? Know who didn’t have any drama? These two!!

Celebrating Samantha

January 31, 2022

Samantha woke up on Thursday morning as a 7 year old! Well, she actually climbed into my bed about 3:30 am as a 7 year old but that was fine with me. πŸ™‚ She was very concerned that I had not decorated downstairs since I didn’t get up early. Thankfully I had decorated the night before! As if I wouldn’t decorate the kitchen for my only baby girl’s birthday?!

She was off to school for a great day!

She took “GJ’s chocolate chip cookies” for her class.

She helped me make them the day before…

Don’t worry, we made two batches of dough – one for her to eat and one for the class! She said the cookies were good but not the best. Why? They were missing a “sprinkle of GJ.” Love that girl. And I can’t argue with that! That afternoon she came running home happy – can’t beat it!

She headed off to tumble and that night we headed to dinner at the club to celebrate our birthday girl!

Dinner at the club is even more fun when one of your besties is there to celebrate her sister’s birthday which is on the same day!
