Sparkly Lips and Smoothies

We took the kids to Walmart to spend some of their money that they had earned. The girls had fun looking at the toys and considering their options and deciding what they most wanted, that was in their price range. Anna very excitedly chose a barbie. (Mommy was just glad that it was a barbie that didn't have lots of small parts and lots of removable clothing!) Eileen's choice was one that I was reluctant about. She decided that she wanted a make up kit. She decided that this was what she most wanted and I made sure she understood rules that would surround it's use. That afternoon during nap time she got our her make up kit and had fun putting sparkly stuff all over her lips and eyeshadow all over her eyes. She then moved on to mommy. Thankfully she knows that boys DON'T wear make up!! She had TONS of fun walking around making kissy faces and showing off her sparkly lips. She was so cute!!

Sunday was tiring as usual. I got a call Saturday night from Eileen's teacher that she was sick and needed a sub. So I got to teach her CTR class. We had a fun lesson on missionaries and how the Lord blesses those who serve missions. We talked about Ammon in the Book of Mormon and about missionaries today. We got a visit from our ward missionaries and also got to talk a bit about Eileen's Grandparents who are serving a mission in Singapore. For a group of 4-5 year olds they are SO SMART! And so sweet!

We had smoothies as part of dinner and the kids LOVE to help make smoothies. Their part is to put in the ice. Aaron is starting to get old enough that he HAS to participate in everything his sisters do, so here he is on the counter helpin make the smoothie. After we walked over to our friends house to visit and play. The kids had fun and tired themselves out completly!! YEY!
