Second Grade Awards Day

Today was awards day day Hillcrest. We're so proud of Julia for getting A/B Honor Roll for 4th 9 weeks and Principal's Award for Reading. 

Julia also had her first Rising Starz practice today. They learned over half their dance! She said she had so much fun today, I think hope she continues to think that!

Mt. Pleasant VBS

The girls had their last night of VBS at Mt. Pleasant tonight and got to share some of the songs they learned this week with us.  Charlotte was SO excited about singing "on stage". They had a great week and were ready to go every night!

Rotten cousins!

Charlotte was excited about showing me all the decorations in her room. Mrs. Kay was a fun teacher!

They had a boys V girls competition to see who could bring in the most offering money for the Children's Home. The girls won which meant that Brother Phil got water balloons thrown at him, but Aunt Robin let them throw a couple at her too so the boys wouldn't whine. She wouldn't let the parents throw any though...

One Happy Girl!

Julia had her last practice for Little Miss Coffee County today. One of these girls will be crowned the new Little Miss Coffee County next Saturday afternoon!

 

After pageant practice we gave Julia her big gift. She has been wishing for some golf clubs and based on her reaction I think she was excited about her gift! 

 I still can't believe this girl is gonna be 7 on Tuesday!!

Charlotte's Thanksgiving Program

Charlotte had her Thanksgiving program today at FUMC. She woke up SO excited this morning. She was ready to go as soon as we took Julia to school even though her program wasn't until 10:00! I stalled her a little bit while I took a shower and got dressed and then we took some pictures, but by 8:30 we were at Panera for breakfast. We got to church super early and sat in the car for about 15 minutes until it was time to go in. She was just so excited she could hardly stand it!

Her class was Indians so she had to dress the part!

Breakfast date at Panera

 

She smiled so big and did so good. She has been so excited all day, even after her program!

This week was Iron Bowl spirit week at dance. The girls got to wear their favorite team colors and do some fun activities at dance.

 

The girls and I went to Dothan tonight to run a few errands while Michael was at the Troy game. Charlotte didn't nap today, but when we got to Dothan she was OUT!  That's some good sleep!

When we got back from Dothan we took our first trip through the Christmas lights at the Trawick's. The girls were so excited to see all the lights!

 

We had a fun, but busy day. We only have one more day of school left this week and then we get a whole week off for Thanksgiving! I can't wait! 

Picture Day & Bible Verses

Today was picture day for Julia. She looked so cute, but she also looked so grown! She picked out her outfit herself and was so proud of it!

 

Miss Ward posted a picture of her and Julia matching in their fall colors today. 

This afternoon the girls were playing before church and Charlotte walked up and said a new Bible verse. I didn't even know they were working on a new verse at school. So proud of her!

 I'm so proud of both these girls and can't believe how fast they're growing up!
