Christmas!!

We had the best Christmas.  We had Grammy, Grampa, Meme and Nana on Christmas Eve and on Christmas day, Aunt Barbara, Uncle Chris, Grampy Joe, Auntie Kate and the Bennetts spent the day with us.  It was such a great day.  The kids were so happy with everything especially the AG dollhouse!

SEVEN!!!!!!

Dear Catherine,

Seven today.  Seriously?  How did this happen?  You are the most sassiest, craziest, hilarious, fun loving girl I know.  You love life.  Love to have fun, love to play and you absolutely love hanging with your friends.  You are like a teenager already.  The new school adjustment for you was a breeze. You went in the first day and came home happy, laughing and with 5 new BFF's.  You are smart and love school.   You love to read, you love learning and want to keep up with Charlotte.  You will know your multiplication tables by the end of the year as we practice with Charlotte you pick it all up.
What you loved this year...Irish step is still your favorite.  You practice so hard and do an amazing job.  Sewing is still a favorite and you are doing Daisies this year which you are really enjoying.  You can't wait to ski this winter.  You still have your solid group of friends.  Even though you are not at the same school you are still so super close with Neve and Kelly.  Of course Gabby, Kate, Emma, Maeve, Aislin and new friends Corah, Lilly, Nialah, Aine and Isabella.  American girl is probably the favorite thing to play.  You and your friends can play for hours.  Arts and crafts are on the top of the list as well.
We are so proud of you Catherine.  You have such a great personality and can make anyone laugh with your silly ways.  You are a leader and we can't wait to see what this year brings.   Stay happy, kind and have FUN in the year ahead.

I love you to the moon and back little lady!!!

New York City!!

We went to NYC a few weekends ago with Nana and Grammy.  We had the BEST time.  We took the train down and stayed right in Times Square.  We went to see the Christmas show at Radio City.  We had lunch at the American Girl Doll store.  Saw the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center.  Went to the Today show and church at St Patrick's.   And a bus tour of NYC at night.  It was a magical weekend for the girls, getting to spend it with both grandmother's.  So special.

Birthday Party!

Catherine had her Birthday party on Saturday at an art place.  You could pick a design and then you paint it.  The kids absolutely loved it!

American Girl tea party!

We went to Smolak farm for a tea party yesterday.  It was where we go apple picking.  They had it in the barn with decorations, lights and of course Santa and Mrs. Claus.  The girls had so much fun making stockings for themselves and their dolls, decorating cookies and having  fun with their friends!

Thanksgiving!

Anther great thanksgiving with friends!   So nice and relaxing!!
