Emma and I went back to the same dress store to find another prom dress for this year. She saw one online but when we went to the store they didn’t have the dress. After rummaging through all the dresses in her size I found the perfect dress. It turns out it was the same dress she had seen online but in a different color. | Madeline had fun taking care of Emma’s Sam Wise Potato project. | Emma and I visited CSU to tour the campus and the cross-country team. | It’s always amazing to me how some holiday cards arrive at the end of January. Those barely made the wall before I took them all down. | Madeline had fun at her first Activity Day girls’ activity. | Emma’s room is always a mess and we usually just shut the door. One evening while Emma was out of town Mike decided to help her and clean up her room. | Mike took Madeline to the field by the elementary school to go sledding after a big snowstorm. She had so much fun. | Madeline and I had fun putting together her Valentines box this year. We made a hot air balloon. Then she put together her Valentines for her classmates with a little help from Mike. | Madeline loved getting her Valentine card and $5 from Grandma this year. This year she could read the card and after she said, “That was so sweet.” | I finally caught up with Peter's Mission album. He is going to love it! | Madeline and I went to Scheels one night and played video games and rollerball and had the best time. | Emma voted for the first time. | Madeline did her diorama project on Jellyfish, and I was able to go into the classroom and see her project. | Mike took Madeline and Easton to John Venezia park to play and have fun on the wheel of humanity. | We love talking with Peter on Sunday evenings and love it when Andrew pops on the conversation too. It’s fun to have the family all together for just a little bit every week. | I started working on Emma’s t-shirt quilt and laid out the first draft of the different rows of the quilt.
