November 2019

We had a fun sleepover with our friends, Austin & Isaac! 

Watching a movie in 3D 

Special pancakes the next morning with sprinkles and whip cream! 

 

We went to the Liberty North production of Cinderella. It was SOOOO good! Our babysitter, Sophia, was in it and it was so fun watching her!

We found Sophia afterwards!

Starting to put up the Christmas decorations

Thanksgiving Weekend in Nebraska

On our way to NE...trying to relax & take a nap 

Kalia was so excited to tell Gramma that she was practicing sewing buttons! Gramma got some fabric out for her to have. She selected some fuzzy fabric and decided to make a scarf. Here she's pinning the sides... 

Kalia was learning how to use the pedal while guiding the fabric through

Then was able to do it all by herself! 

Making angel biscuits 

The traditional Lego tower!

This was Kalia's SECOND piece of apple pie! 

The next day, Dad brought me to the NE vs IA game as part of my birthday present.

It was lots of fun but rainy and chilly! 

Kalia and Mom were at her cousin, Erin's house watching the game and staying nice & warm.

School & Field Trip Photos

 1st Grade field trip to Kaleidoscope

Kalia had a blast because it was all arts & crafts - her favorite!

Practicing my spelling words 

We studied a unit on electricity and had to make an apartment room with one source of electricity. My partner & I were given the living room with a working ceiling fan. Then we had to create a pamphlet to advertise to a potential renter.

I passed all of my math goals! 

The Kansas City mayor, Quinton Lucas, came for a visit and to talk to us. This was really cool!

Taking some family pictures...we rushed and lost a lot of daylight, but was able to get a spectacular shot of the moon in the background!

I was trying to show Kalia how to put her hand so she can throw the football

A little family game of football...
