Family Night #3 – Opaa!

In case you hadn’t already guessed, we went with a greek theme for our family night.  Yes, toga parties aren’t only meant for fraternities and sororities. We had a little trouble getting Kenedee to keep the toga on, but just as before, she left it on for a picture.

Don’t Wear Your Underwear On Your Head

That’s what the program was about today at the library.  Kenedee and I visit the library every week and every so often we attend one of the special events that they offer.  Today, they read books from the author Todd Parr, they discussed being different and how it’s okay to be different.  The underwear part [...]

Family Night #1

We have always tried to have a family night once a week, but just recently we’ve decided to do theme family nights.  Tonight was our first one which we decided to make a japanese theme.  The creativity was mine, but I must admit the inspiration for my family nights came from another mother’s blog that [...]
