Progressive Party

Saturday was a busy day for Heather.  We ran to get her some new shoes for volleyball since she's been slipping so badly on the floor.  She also spends a lot of time jumping/blocking, so she needed some cushion.  We found a pair of court shoes that should do the trick (flat surface area compared to running shoes).  The girl is wearing an 8.5.  Holy cow.


After the shoe shopping, we hurried her over to Kenzie's to start the progressive party.  The girls planned this as their get-together over the break, and all of our schedules conflicted until the Saturday before school resumed.  The moms were happy we could actually make it happen for these cuties.  I had mentioned the idea one day after school, and they took off with it.  They were so excited planning it all at school during the days before the break (without moms' input, but fortunately everything was reasonable).  They went to Kenzie's house for popcorn, sparkling cider and WiiU games, then to our house for homemade hot cocoa and a few rounds of Quelf, and then to Grace's house for a movie and dinner. The movie never happened, but dinner and being goofy were very enjoyable.  They had so much fun together.  Kaella, Kenzie's friend, joined the crew, and all the girls were sad to find out Madi was sick.  We'll have to plan another party so that Madi can come.

Jenna spent some time with Sarah while Kelly and I jetted out to grab dinner.  Dinner ended up being Jack-in-the-Box, but we were happy to have a few minutes of uninterrupted kid time.  The girls were home by 9:00PM and in bed before ten.  Early church tomorrow!
