A Lize Day!

Today Danika and her best friend Lize were together for 13 hours straight! They started preschool at 8:30am this morning, Caroline picked Danika up for me after school and Danika went to the farm. The girls played outside all afternoon in a cardboard 'house' and were picking flowers for it and everything, sounds like they had lots of fun. Then after the babies naps they came over and Caroline, Adessa, Kailey and I had a visit after the 2 big girls went to Meagan's (Danika's babysitter) house for a tea party. They went over there at 4:30 and at 5:30 we get called to see if Meagan can take the girls to the candy store and then walk to the park! Today was the first day it felt like Spring in awhile so we said sure! (realizing it was close to supper!) So after an hour, 2 happy little girls came bursting through the door with a bag full of candy, pet shop animals and beautiful bracelets. They had a tea party and made rice krispie squares, played little pet shops then went for a walk to the ocean, the candy store and the park before coming home. Once they came home we had a big steak dinner with the Nagtegaals and then the kids played until 9:30 (as the dads were watching the hockey game!)

It was a wonderful day and we are so blessed to live in a beautiful little community with such wonderful friends! I'm betting my big girl will have a well deserved sleep-in tomorrow morning!
