Puppets and Playdates

Another gorgeous day here and the girls jumped on my bed early in the morning with the plea to 'defrost' the trampoline. How? By putting on snowsuits and sliding on it of course! So out came the snowsuits and 20 minutes later the trampoline was defrosted and the girls had rosy cheeks and an appetite for breakfast.

The card/activity of the day was puppet making and story telling, so the girls started their puppets and set making soon after breakfast. But that was all put aside with a phone call from good friends wanting to hang out. Lunch, gingerbread house decorating, playing at the park, hot chocolate and trampoline jumping made 3 hours fly by. With such a busy fall, it was so good to just play and chat together. Sometimes you can forget how life giving good friends can be!

Then after dinner, the puppets came out and the girls and Hubby each put on a show!(I begged off because I still have a paper due for school. However, I was the audience for the night) I love hearing the girls' stories and just excitement to be doing this with us. Hubby took an old pair of socks and put on quite the show. The pictures don't quite do it justice, but they are phone pictures after all!
