Sophie Goes to the Dentist...

Last time that Hayden and Ana had a dental check up, Sophie was trying her best to get up in the chair with them. That was my cue that she was ready for her own visit to the dentist. So here she is on her big day. She was so excited to have her turn up in the flying chair, with the fancy sunglasses on...

 

And she was super brave when they cleaned her teeth...

 

I just love our dentist, he is so sweet with the kids. Thanks Wild Smile for making my kids LOVE going to the dentist!!

Christmas Dancers...

Two cute dancing dolls...




The girls had their Christmas dance recital last week and it was just so fun to watch them. I wasn't sure if Sophie was going to dance or not (you never know with her), but man did she dance! She was so stinkin' cute!

Snowman Treats...

It wouldn't be the holidays, unless we made some sweet treats...


Thank you Pinterest!!

Ana's Egypt Day...

It seems like just yesterday that Hayden was having Egypt day in first grade, but it's been 2 years, Holy Cow! And now it's Ana's turn, and man was she excited. This is what she looked like before she left for school...

And this is what she looked like when I got there to help with the activities...

I asked her where her hair went, and she said "Joseph didn't have a costume, so I let him have part of mine." Ana, you are such a sweet girl:) Egypt Day was such a fun time with you...


Ana and her teacher, Ms. Cantrell. It's so fun that the teachers dress up for these special days, too, the kids just love it...

Flash Moms at Christmas...

Do it once... and you'll have to do it again... Ever since our Twilight flash mob, we Flash Moms have all been itching to do it again. So last night was the night! We had all planned to go see a play at the Fine Arts Complex, downtown Denver. It was the perfect scenario, we couldn't help but do it. This time my friend Sara coordinated it, she even got finger lights for all of us to wear... fitting for the season (and the song Lights). It pretty much rocked! Here's a photo of the group and a video. Can I get a Woot Woot!?!

First Grade Field Trip...

8 first graders. 1 huge museum. 3 hours. Fun(but total chaos)...

Daddy-Daughter Day Spa...

Over thanksgiving break, Rob promised the girls a "surprise". I had no idea what he was planning, he uses the word "surprise" quite loosely, so I thought nothing of it. So when he busted out his plan for a spa day, in which he would be hair stylist, nail tech and cosmetologist, I was just as "surprised" as they were... Yes, Rob is sitting in a tiny pink chair:)
It was so fun and cute to watch the whole thing play out, and of course, Sophie and Ana were on cloud 9...


He actually did a really good job on the make-up and nails. Way to go honey!!

A Tree for Me...

Last year after Christmas, I bought these cute little trees for just $3 each. It was so fun to get them out this year and let the kids each choose how they wanted to decorate them. Ana kindly let Sophie have the pink one, it made her year I think...

 

 

The kids loved choosing which tiny ornaments to use (also purchased last year at 90% off!! Gotta love a good deal), and making each tree their own. I think they decorated and redecorated their trees about 5 times. Great family fun...

 

This may be the year that our big tree is just for me! We'll see...
