It's a rare occasion these days to get this girl to actually look at the camera, so we take what we can get.
She is wearing a gift from Nana and reading Christmas book from Grandma. Thank you to thoughtful grandparents who have made this Christmas so special.We are looking forward to spending it with you.
Right after she got dressed this morning, she wanted me to find Geoff and present her officially as a princess being announced at a ball. It was so cute.
The best is she actually kept her bows in her hair the entire time we were at church!!
We had our Christmas program today. I sang in the choir and Katherine sat with Geoff until it was time for him to leave for work. Normally, Katherine grabs at the chance to sit with Ella Shea, but today when Geoff dropped her off, she lost it! She did not want him to go and she would not be assuaged. She ended up joining me on the stand, and as you know, the girl came right into her element. She quickly put herself together and began trying to sing with the rest of us. What a trooper! Katherine, you made my day!
This year's Christmas party was a total blast! We had a hay ride, a bonfire, a craft room, Santa and lots of good food! Several members had invited their neighbors and friends so we got to meet a lot of new people.
Katherine was obsessed with Santa Claus! When she saw him join everyone in the gym for dinner, she couldn't help but become his shadow, following him around everywhere. She convinced him to sit next to her and kept kissing his arms and legs. She didn't know what to tell him when he asked her what she wanted for Christmas but she sure liked it when he talked to her.
So many good friends. We love our ward family! Merry Christmas!!
Our neighbor, Amaya, just turned 3 and her mother owns a business from home making tutus. So this was a Juju's Tutus Pinkalicious birthday party!
All girls received a custom made Pinkalicious tutu, ate Pinkalicious cupcakes, were read a Pinkalicious story, and got their faces and nails painted in Pinkalicious splendor!
Katherine did pretty well, but by the end she became a little jealous of all the presents Amaya got to open. I had to remind her that Christmas was right around the corner.
The best part of the afternoon was the runway walk where the girls got strut their stuff. Then they just danced. This party was every 3 year old girl's dream come true! Thanks Amaya!!
