To celebrate the new year we took Gracie to see her first musical, 'Elf'.
Singing, acting and dancing - all things Gracie-esque... needless to say, she LOVED it!
The first FHE of the year was a family game night; 'Twister' was our game of choice and even Ezzy played a round! Parker tried to get his paws in there too but I quickly put the kabosh on that!
Gracie & Ezzy are finding things in common - the T.V. being one of those things (uh oh!)
This past weekend we took the kiddos up to see the snow. We had so many layers on Ezzy that by the time we put him in the final layer he was a human stick - I picked him up by the collar and we couldn't help but laugh! We decided to capture the moment...
"Snow"body loves these kiddos like I do!
"This is how she rolls"...
"All fun and games till daddy gets hurt"...
My snow angels...
After watching Gracie fly down hills, topple over, and get all wet, Ezzy wasn't too sure about getting on the sled but he did it without any fuss or tears (such a good boy!) and Gracie enjoyed the company...
Just us girls holding on for dear life!...
All things are better when they are done with you...
This past weekend we also celebrated Gracie's 6th bday at 'Build A Bear Workshop'...
Here Gracie is "Stuffing her bear"...
Giving her bear hugs...
Making a wish for her bear (to be placed inside the bear's heart)...
Gracie later told me that she had wished 'her bear would know how much she loves it'.
Sounds like she already has the makings of a great mommy :)
Gracie's princess bear ('her daughter' as she refers to it).
After the bears were stuffed the kiddos got to 'wash' and 'dry' the bears under real dryers and then comb them.
(This was their favorite part of the experience)
Then they got to pick out clothes for the bears and dress them.
Afterwards they printed their birth certificates where the girls had to chose names for the bears. Gracie looked at her princess bear in her fairy dress and called her "princess fairy".
Afterwards we went to red robin for lunch. Here is Gracie with her cousin Remedy...
(This pic was taken for Grandma Marlene:)
After the kind people at red robin sang their famous birthday song Gracie dove into her treat, sharing with Remedy of course!
Happy Birthday Gracie! - another year bites the dust! :)
And so far, HAPPY New year to the Francis Family!!
