Alissa's first Christmas program

Alissa had her kindergarten Christmas program at school. She did a great job and sang her little heart out. It was a lot of fun! For the first time we had one of the tall kids so she was standing in the back but we could still see her very well. It just seems the kids keep hitting all kinds of milestones and that makes me happy and proud and even a little sad. The next thing you know she'll be a first grader.

Slumber party

Kristen had a slumber party last night and it went pretty well. We took the girls to a video store and let them pick out some movies. They played charades and giggled and watched movies all night long. The biggest issue we had was the girls being a little loud but that's teenage girls at a slumber party for ya. Kristen had wanted a cat theme for her party so I made cupcakes that I turned into kitty cat faces and they were a hit. Right now Kristen is in her room sleeping since little of that was done at the party last night.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTEN!!!!!a little late

Our Kristen is 13 years old. She's officially a teenager and loves the sound of that. I can tell you she's been acting like one for at least the last two years anyway. She is still in band and orchestra which she enjoys and I see no sign of stopping anytime soon. Hannah Montanna and High School Musical have started to fade away a bit and the Jonas Brothers are the current craze with her and her friends. She has been a strait A studen all this year and we are very proud of her for that! She is still in girl scouts and is on track to earn her silver award by the end of summer. She has grown up so much and it's hard to believe in 5 short years she'll be going off to college and be on her own.
