Christmas Eve!

Jim and Jacky asked me to take Katie for the day. There were no kids movies playing or much else to do, so we went to the Chandler Mall- which was ridiculously crowded. Of course we visited "Justice", bought earrings and watches, Bath and Body Works for make up applications and perfume, then Henna tattoos. Spending Christmas Eve at a crowded mall is not really my idea of fun, but we did ok!At Justice, everybody's favorite store. Make up applications:) Christmas Eve dinner at the food court- WOW! Getting henna tattoos!

CEE Holiday Concert:)

Fourth Grade dressed as Christmas trees! Even though I had a front row seat, I didn't see Jasmine the entire night:( We'll have to wait for the DVD to come out. Jasmine and Leila have been friends since 2nd grade:)

Hot Chocolate Sales!

Somehow, I got volunteered to "help" sell hot chocolate at school every morning this week. We've actually had some pretty brisk sales:) It's microwaved sugar and chemicals in a styrofoam/plastic cup! Great way to start the day!

Arizona Foster/Adoptive Families Bike Giveaway...

Every year, the AzFAP gives away a new bike or large bag of toys to each foster or adopted child in Arizona. Jazzy opted for the bike this year. We picked it up today:) Jasmine said, "She's pink." "She sure is a beauty!". The fake picture smile! New bike!
