Gram/Fashion Show/Carinval/Snow

Gram is here!  We have been very busy and having a blast!  Gram got here on Wednesday morning and of course the first thing that we had to do was go on a shopping spree for the girls.  I don't do a lot of shoping for the kids on my own but a couple times a year with my mom is plenty!  On the way home I mentioned that we needed to show Daddy all the clothes we got and Kiara said "WE SHOULD HAVE A FASHION SHOW!" So that is what we did.
Mckenna & Kiara in thier favorite outfits!

Ava in one of her new outfits - hanging out with Gram!

On Friday we had a lot of plans.  I was going to take Tom to the airport for the Combine, Kiara had school, Gram was going to take Mckenna to gymnastics, and that evening we had Kiara's school carnival - the girls were so excited.  None of those events happened because a huge storm hit.  We got 18 inches of snow.  Tom's flight got cancelled and so did everything else.  When we woke up we had about a foot and we knew that Tom was not going to leave until the next day.  The girls were so bummed that the school carnival was cancelled so we decided that we better have a carnival at our house.  We spend most of the day getting ready and around 4pm the carnival began.......

We had about 10 games set up. This game was rolling 4 plastic golf balls down the slide and trying to get them into a bucket.  Look at that concentration...

This was Kiara and Mckenna's nail painting station.  We couldn't get Tom to participate because he didn't want his nails painted before heading to the Combine but I think we might be able to next time :)!


This is the only video we took but it is a pretty good one of the bowling game we had set up.  Ben gave this bowling set to Kiara one Christmas and we all love playing it!!

Today Kiara, Mckenna, and I went out to play in the snow.  


This is the mound of snow from the plows. 

The girls love hanging out with their Gram (as you can see on their faces)!!
