Puppy Party

 Today Hope celebrated her birthday with friends and we had a puppy party.  It was so much fun!  The girls got to pick a puppy to adopt and then take some food for their puppy.

 They made sparkly collars for their puppies.

 And pinned the tiara on the puppy.  Because every puppy needs a tiara.

 We ate pizza for lunch.

 And lots of pink marbled birthday cake.

 Hope got so many fun presents from her friends.

All her friends got to go home with their puppy, food, food bowl and adoption certificate.  I gotta admit it was one great puppy party.  Happy Birthday, Hope!

Preschool, Here we Come!

 Hope has been waiting over a month to start school, and today is the big day! Hope is blessed to go to Little Eagles Preschool at Freedom High where Spencer goes.  She gets six different high school teachers, and she is so excited to begin this new year.

I can't believe I just did the first day of preschool for the last time.

Happy Birthday, Hope!

 We celebrated Hope today with her favorites: frozen yogurt and a movie.

 The boys went to a different movie, and I took the girls to Hotel Transylvania 2.

Since she opened her presents earlier this week, she got to celebrate without presents, but we sure had fun.  I'm so grateful for Hope, and I can't believe she is 5.  She loves to do crafts, paint nails, be fancy and sing.  Sure love her.

More Football

 Spent the afternoon watching another football game and cheering for James.

We bring the best cheerleaders.

Recycling at its Best

 I had been looking and looking for something to make a doll house for American Girl dolls.  The problem is the dolls are so tall that it's hard to find something wide enough to fit their furniture.  When I saw this old entertainment center on free-cycle I knew I had found the perfect house.  I put in a floating shelf and pole for the second story.  I painted the inside and added the contact paper and voila! Now these dolls have a home.  The best part is you can shut the door and hide it all.

 I gave this to Faith and Hope for their birthdays this week.  They got the kitchen and couch as well as the dressing table for their birthdays.  I don't know who loves it more, me or them.

Party Time

 Today Faith had her party for her friends.  She chose a rainbow unicorn party.  It was awesome.

 The girls painted a unicorn painting, made necklaces and played games.

This party was a success!
