Lots of parties

PaRtY!!

The week before school let out for winter break was a busy few days with all the parties. To add to the craziness I was working on a custom cake order in between all the kids activities.

 

 I so enjoy being in the classrooms interacting with the kids in a less structured environment and having opportunities to get to know a few of the moms better. Here are a few moms that I have enjoyed getting to know this year as we have crossed paths at a variety of places in the community with kids activities.  

 

The kids gave each of the room moms and helpers Thank you cards for planning parties. I just loved reading through each one of the cards. One of the boys drew a football on the card and he told me He just knew I liked football because I was team mom for one of the teams. These kids pay attention even when you think you are not doing much. 

You just can't go wrong with minute to win it games. The kids had so much fun!

 Maddy took her turn with the cotton ball game. You put Vaseline on your nose and move cotton balls from one plate to another.

 

 Making homemade ice cream.

This is such a great class. You don't hear any complaining..none at all. They go with the flow and seem to enjoy anything that you plan for the parties. I am thankful for this little class.

I was not able to get into Logan's class this time since his party was on the same day/time.



Next party.......
 

Olivia enjoyed every second of her chocolate dipped pretzel! I enjoy how kindergarten children don't have any expectations of what a party should or shouldn't be so they just like everything!  It doesn't take much for the kids to have fun. 





Olivia and her little friend at school, such a sweet talkative little girl.

Maddy had a BIG day of party-ing! Her 4-H party was lots of fun! I just cant tell you how much I have enjoyed getting to know this group of parents and the 4-H leader, Lori.  Children are from all over Harrisburg and beyond and It's refreshing to see so many active dads participating in the program with their children.

 

Of course cake pops were made for the occasion. We made little tags with the 4-H logo and pledge.



 

A few of the girls dressed their bunnies (big and small)  up for Christmas.

 

 

We also took a tour of the farm show as it was being set up. Maddy will be very busy volunteering with 4-H at the farm show this year!!
