Adventures of Evie

  Today was movie night! We had a lazy morning just snuggling, watching Blippi, and having a leisurely brunch. Then we started prepping for movie night. Tonight is Disenchanted and this one was a BIT tricky for me since I have not personally seen it yet. But we did some Google searches and managed to come up with a fun menu without spoiling the plot!  Evie had a lot of fun helping me make a magical cheesecake but she didn't love eating it! ;)

  Thanksgiving!! Today we got up and ate breakfast and made some slime. I gave Evie a ton of glitters to jazz it up a little bit and she had a lot of fun making it pretty. After that we headed off to family. Evie had THREE Thanksgiving dinners to go to today and she was pretty tired by the end of the day. Her thankful list this year included her mama, her family, her house, and her school. <3 

  No school today! It was so nice outside and today Evie and I could finally have a MESSY play day!! I have a TON of paper I've been shredding up from old documents and whatnot and we took the bucket outside and had a pretend blizzard. We even made snow angels! It was really fun to be able to get outside and play and run around and pretend and not have to worry about having somewhere to be.  The cleanup was pretty easy on this too. Just use a blower to send it all into the grass! ;P

One more day of school this week. I'm actually really excited to have Evie home for a few days because I miss being able to have messy play mornings with her. Now we have to be careful not to get too messy before she has to go to school. We worked on some fall worksheets that her teacher sent home today. I think she has completely wrapped up her homework packets at this point so that should give us a few days to just have some fun together. :)  

  This week is a short week for Evie. She only has school Monday and Tuesday but she still has PLENTY of homework to finish up. Since we have a few days off this week we spent the morning today wrapping up some of her work. After school we had makeup gymnastics and to Evie's surprise, her friend Quinn is in Monday gymnastics class. She was really excited to see her and have class together. Now she is begging me to switch her nights BUT I reminded her that her other friends are in her Thursday class so either way she will miss out on her friends. It was a fun evening though. :)
