Spending Time with my Girls

It has been all about girls lately. I've been spending time with my two wonderful daughters. Celia had a Jog-a-thon at school and I went there and watched her run/walk. We went to the park together and played in the sand and made sand heart and she took me to CeliaLand. I think that term might have been dubbed by helpers at school for having her calm down when frustrated. In Celia land , you think of all the things she like whether it be bunnies, puppies, cupcakes, or the color pink. I indulged her and we had a lot of fun. I got the girls new dresses for Easter and attended a baby shower for a  girl. Celia, Emmy and I went to general women's conference together in our old Stake since we were already nearby when it began.

Emmy had been studying( AP Stats test corrections) with a friend from school . There were a lot of giggles and girl catch up. Celia came in and painted her nails and put on lip gloss during our conversations. These girls are smart. They were talking about where they got accepted to college and next thing I know Emmy is drawing a pretty accurate map of the United States. Together Kari and Emmy worked through the map and it is on Emmy's white board in their room. Leap Pad would be happy to know these girls memorized the states and their shapes from early use of their programs, who knew that would really work?!

I did get to visit with my boys too yesterday. We visiting Rah Rah and Papa and got late night treat( I got a salad ) at Safeway. I had 11 friends over for Bunco. I got a cute framed C for the girls bathroom to Jazz it up for my friends coming over and for Celia to start doing tutoring lessons in there. Maybe she will do better at her hygiene routines if it is cute! The Bunco party went went we laughed and ate and talked for three hours. I'm still not used to entertaining, but it was fun to have it at my house.  For appetizers we had mini quiche and french baguette with Parmesan jalapeno dip. We have blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and whipped cream to top brownie bites or cheese cake for dessert.I did have a giant veggie platter, but each table(3) had two or more candy dishes full of candy on them as specified for those that host Bunco. I am so over treats after the Bunco party. With a baby shower then cinnamon rolls at Women's Conference on Saturday, I want to get off this sugar high.:) Easter and birthday month are coming so we may have to rethink some treats. My folks are coming to town and we are excited to have them here!
