Father Daughter Ball, 2011

Hurricane Creek Elementary has their annual Father Daughter Ball around Valentine's Day again this year! Of course Kennedy, you were the prettiest princess there! You started puckering your lips real sassy when it was picture taking time! And Camryn, you wanted right in the middle of it! Everytime I would take a picture of Kennedy you would ask me to take one of you too! Next year you will get to go!!!

Kelsey, Patrick, Timothy, Todd and the girls went fishing one Sunday afternoon. They had lots of fun and caught some fish too!

Bowling on New Year's Eve!

Laynie's First Christmas

The first graders went to The Children's Theater to see Junie B. Jones' "Jingle Bells, Batman Smells" a few weeks before Christmas. We had lunch at Burger King and then headed to the play! It was really good and the actors and actresses fit the characters in the book series to a tee!

Kenney and her good friend Reece. They were in the same kindergarten class but didn't get put together again this year

Of course Kennedy talked me into buying her a new Junie B. book

Camryn's Preschool Christmas Play and Party

Camryn's preschool had the sweetest Christmas program this year! She asked her music teacher if she could be Mary and she agreed so my precious little baby played Mary in the program. It was so sweet! The first week of school she came home talking about a boy named Brayden in Mrs. Ta Ta's class that said she was his girlfriend. She couldn't believe he would say such a thing and said she kept telling him she was not! Well, of course he played Joseph! The whole program was adorable and her being one of the stars of the show made it even more special! She didn't feel good that morning so I gave her some cough and cold medicine and she was in a daze! She still sang and did her part but you could tell she would love to go crawl into her warm, cozy bed! As the narrator was reading the Christmas story and got to the part that said Mary was very tired, Camryn yawned as if on cue! Following the program she had a fun party with games, an ornament making craft, and yummy Christmas treats!

Decorating her Christmas cookie

The food perked her up a little! I think the chocolate cupcake did the trick!

Mrs. Shannon! We love her and are going to miss her sooooo much! Camryn is one of her favorites (I can just tell!)

Flowers from Aunt Magan

This girl isn't a fan of pictures and especially not when she doesn't feel well. See those sick little eyes?Aunt KK and Laynie

Back in December Kenned memorized the 23rd Psalm for Sparks. She is also learning old hymns for choir and I get tears in my eyes hearing her sing them!

Laynie makes a bee line for a cell phone or tv remote every chance she gets! She was playing with the dollhouse and

saw an old cell phone that we gave Kennedy and Camryn lying on the floor and crawled over to get it. She wasn't quit finished playing with the gardening apron so she carried it in her mouth to free up her hands so she could crawl and retreive the phone! She is getting to be so much fun and her little personality is developing more and more each day. Her latest trick is to mimic you sniffing. After a few sniffs she will usually start coughing to get even more attention!
