American Girl Fashion Show November 2009




Ok- It has been a WHILE and there are many months not accounted for.....I am starting NOW and will not feel guilty for the missing months. I swear we did stuff...we are here now though, living in the present! I did finally post the stuff from the beginning of the summer...forgot to hit publish before. Some of the pictures are sideways and I am not fixing them.

Here we are in NOVEMBER. Elizabeth was KIT Kittredge in an American Girl Charity Fashion show...she did a great job and did really look like the doll. I posted the video and I do not know why it has no sound....but you get the general idea. The character is from the 1930's and they talk about the simple clothes. They also talk about some ideas in the commentary that would be good for today- Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without. I am using that as a TEACHING MOMENT/ reminder for my little family! Great timing.




The next is our California Kid playing HOCKEY! He has moved up to his age group and having lots of fun "checking" which ='s legal hitting...although today he ended up in the penalty box after a late "check" He is number 5 in the black. He is really having a great time and Bob and I have a steep learning curve! We also got to go to a local Kalamazoo Wings game. My sister in law Katy's brother in law ( if you can follow that!) just got signed for this season..We had a blast with the whole Verduzco clan and our cool neighbors...we ended up with seat close together.




That is all for now.
