Exciting times at the Nelson household! This is Kayla on Saturday . . . picking out which earrings she wanted for her pierced ears!!!! She had been saying all year that for her birthday she wanted her ears pierced -- and she never changed her mind!
Here's the before . . .
. . . and here's the after! She was a trooper! The place we went to did both ears at the same time -- which was GREAT! It also helped that the girl right before her did AWESOME,
so Kayla just followed suit!
We had a little "Frozen-themed" party at the house for a few school friends. The crafty part of the part was decorating mugs with markers -- and I TOTALLY forgot to get any pictures -- ARGH!
Mama's best attempt at a "Frozen" palace!
Trying to stack Kristoff's ice blocks:)
Adding marshmallows into the mug . . . without using hands!
We were minus a friend . . . she was at home with a 101 degree fever and pneumonia:(
It was a fun group of girls!
Yep - there are 8 candles!
"Do you wanna build a snowman?" Why sure!
This morning we had Kayla open some gifts before school since we knew the afternoon and evening would be full. It's always a treat getting a package in the mail from Wisconsin!
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Nelson! We're trying something new this year -- since Joshua's birthday is in 3 weeks, we're going to have a combined KS family party next week for both J and K -- it will result in an extended birthday celebration for both of them!
