Happy Holidays!

Isa had her first "big" birthday party at Wheels play gym earlier this month. It was great to celebrate with her and all the kids. Most of her preschool class made it as well as some friends we hadn't gotten to see for a while.




That same weekend, we went to see Frozen on Ice. Isa had a great time. The snowman song was the best. Even though the place was Frozen-mad, she picked out an Ariel snow cone cup for a souvenir. Still loyal to The Mermaid.

Unfortunately she got sick right after that and missed most of the last week of preschool. She misses her friends already, but she gets to see them before school starts again since one of them has a birthday party coming up.

On Friday we went to a party at the Hillsborough Rec Center and I got Isa to wear this holiday outfit by telling her she was dressing up as a candy cane. :) These little parties are great! She got to make fake snow (mix shaving cream and corn starch - who knew?), color gingerbread people, make a snowman ornament out of popsicle sticks, and play games with the other kids. I got to go yarn shopping while she did all that. :D

We've been busy gearing up for Christmas. We did our first cookie house, and I made a ton of homemade gingerbread for us, work, Isa's classmates, and various other people. I went a little heavy on the frosting...we like our snowmen and bears fluffy.

"I ate all the extras"

Just 3 more days! Hope you and your family have a great holiday season and a happy new year.
