5 on Friday

1. The girls started the weekend off with a trip to the Science Center on Saturday morning (after our weekly trip to the grocery store).   A few hours of fun before we headed back home for a nap (for the girls, not me).  Ellie was very excited to take space food to school on Monday (they are studying space this month).

2. With the beautiful weather, we made sure to get outside and play in the snow Saturday afternoon.  The girls had a blast playing in their 'snow fort' and making Olaf.

3. I love last minute plans that just come together.   We were making lasagna for dinner (Ellie's request) on Sunday and, knowing we would have plenty of extras, invited another family to join us less than two hours before dinner.   It worked out that they were available and we had an amazing dinner.  The kiddos had a blast playing together and the girls slept well from the extra activity.

4. Neve is sneaky... and smart... Ellie usually claims the character of Elsa when playing Frozen with Neve.   On Tuesday night we were listening to "Love is an Open Door" from Neve said that it was her and Daddy's song (Anna and Hans sing the song in the movie).   Ellie commented that she wanted to be Anna and she was singing the song.  Neve quickly agreed and then said that she was Elsa.  Way to go Neve, outsmarting your sister so you can be Elsa.  

5. I think Ellie is going through a growth spurt... she is eating anything and everything in site, is super emotional and has gone to bed pretty easy the past few nights (knock on wood).    I better take inventory of our next size up in clothing!
