In addition to dinner at the Buoy Deck on Friday, we usually visit Tasty Treat for some "fro yo". Since the girls are off from school tomorrow, we had dessert before dinner after music lessons. When we got home, i decided it was movie time! We first watched Rio on the plane from Germany to New Jersey in July and it is one of the girls' favs. A fun way to start the weekend!

MN+MR: skating lesson

The girls have been waiting approximately 3 years to take skating lessons (when we first met our friend A and she had just started taking lessons), and today was the day... Their first official lesson! The rink offered/offers parent and tot skates and informal lessons, but these were our first official lessons with the Juneau Skating Club. Both girls said their teachers were fun and nice (they were each in a small group of 3), an are so excited about skating that they want to go again tomorrow. Thank goodness we live close by!

MN: "today was a perfect day"
MR: I'm not sure... I liked to much of it

Who knew running myself ragged was the best way to make my girlies happy! ;) Today was very busy for me today (two 2 hour sessions of volunteering at school, middle of the day appointment, shopping for pellets and ice melt and fruit, making sure the dog got walked enough... the list could go on, but i'm too tired!) The girls went to school, had another wonderful day of learning, got to hang at the book fair and get a goodie (yesterday they got books, today a treat: erasers!), went to Daisies, had an awesome scavenger hunt, hung out with friends and ran wild at Bullwinkles for dinner... Whatever their favorite thing was, they went to bed missing Daddy, but really happy! Hooray for happy, tired kiddos!!
