Party time!

Last Saturday was packed! We had the morning ballet lessons, and then Sophia's first classmate birthday party, and then headed up to Grand Forks for Grandma Mary's 90th birthday party! Sophia's classmate, Elly, had her party at a local children's museum, and the kids had LOTS of fun there!




Enjoying the museum's interactive exhibits...




A quick nap in the car, and Sophia was ready for her next party!



The world's best birthday girl!








Cousins performance!

Of course the party continued well into the night back at Carmen and Ralph's!


Ava helping her Grandpa Ralph with his cards! ;)


The next morning Sophia insisted on the usual diva outfit, and then helped her cousins Gunner and DJ make carmel rolls for Grandma's birthday breakfast!




Cuddling on the way to breakfast!


Sophia with her great grandma! So, so special :)

Sophia LOVES babies, especially Ava!


On Veterans Day Sophia's Godfather, Brandon, paid a surprise visit and we roped him into babysitting while Travis and I went to our first parent-teacher conference, which was FUN! We took Brandon out to lunch to thank him and managed to sneak in a few photos of Sophia with her Godfather Brandon!


I know these are hard to see, but this was phase 1 of Sophia's "room redo!" We are doing a wall mural of horses in fields, and started by sketching in the outlines and some shading from projected photographs. Here are the sketches!



We're slowly getting there! Acrylic paint is difficult, but I'm getting the hang of it!

Tummy face! The joys of washable markers! :)
