principal's list

Natalie made principal's list again with all A's the first semester of school!

 

natalie and ava...round three!

For Christmas, Natalie's cousin Ava received another trip to come visit Natalie!  This time she told Natalie ahead of time, which wasn't nearly as fun as surprising her, but it certainly made preparing for their visit much easier!  Brandon and Tyler were even out of town for a youth trip for most of the time Ava was here, so it was pretty much the perfect weekend for Natalie!  The weather was lovely in the mid 70's so we tried to spend most of our time outside.

Making s'mores

 Lots of drawing and art projects

 Trampoline

 Sherm and Kevin played basketball

 We went to In & Out Burger

 We spent time at several different parks

We received a tube of cookie dough for a Christmas present that never got made, so the girls had fun making and decorating (and of course eating) sugar cookies.

It was also Grandma Park's birthday that weekend so we also had a picnic at the park to celebrate.  She decided she wanted to take the grandkids for ice cream for her birthday!

I love the special bond these girls share!
