Today was Teddy Bear day

Cassie got to take her bear "Sparkles" to school with her today. It was teddy bear day. They had been talking about different kinds of bears all week. They had a teddy bear picnic and then played a fun game. Everyone in class introduced their bear and told a little bit about it. Cassie had a very hard time trying to decide what Sparkles should wear. Sparkles is 3 1/2 years old. Cassie built her in Salt Lake at the Build-a-Bear in the Gateway. Every time we go to Salt Lake we have to go to Build-a-Bear.

It was such a nice sunny day today. This is one of reasons I love living here. I decided to walk up and pick the girls up. Cassie's friend Mitzi came over to play. My neighbors kids also came over. The girls had a great afternoon. I just love Fridays.

The girls had a dance performance on Tuesday night. It was at the Dixie College girls basketball game. We were able to get free tickets if we stayed to watch the game after the performance. The girls wanted a treat from the concession stand. They got frozen lemonade slushie's. We stayed and watched the 3rd quarter then left. I love watching the girls dance. Jadzia is getting very good and Cassie is just so cute.

Oreo's Are the BEST!

Friday's are one of my favorite days. The girls get out early from school and Cassie always wants to have friends over. They have lots of fun dressing up, playing barbie's, polly's or bears. After an hour of playing they had to take a break. What snack is better than Oreo's and milk.

Later in the day Cassie went to a pizza birthday party and Jamie took Jadzia out for a daddy/daughter date. I wanted them to take the camera and snap a few pictures but they refused. They went bowling and ate dinner. The house was really quiet after they left. I spent time organizing all my digital pictures.

I don't know why but I couldn't take a very good picture of this. The little treasure chest with Cassie's tooth.

Cassie had a loose tooth last sunday. It was just barely hanging on but she didn't want it to fall out until monday when she was at school. Her teacher has these cute little treasure chests that you get if you tooth falls out during school. She got her wish. When I picked her up on monday she was smiling from ear to ear and had a little green treasure chest in her hand. That night she wrote a letter to the Tooth Fairy asking if she could please, please, please keep her tooth because she had a very safe place to keep it. Of course she still wanted some money. The tooth fairy was very nice and let her keep the tooth and also gave her a dollar. This is only Cassie's 2nd lost tooth.
