Since the girls have summer birthday's, they get to celebrate their birthday at school on their half birthday. It's a big deal as not only do they get to bring in treats to share with their friends but they get to parade around school with a buddy in honor of their birthday. The girls half birthday was this week & we have been talking about ideas for treats to bring in for weeks!?!?! Do we bake something or buy something??? Oh it was such a decision for them. But since their birthday's are in the summer, Gracie really wanted to go with a summer theme & of course, Josie agreed :) So we finally decided that we'd bring in ice cream sandwiches. What's more fun than bringing in a little bit of summer in the winter :) So we bought lots & lots of ice cream sandwiches. However, I think if we could have made our own, they would have loved it :) Next up, we went on a shopping spree to the party store to buy summer essentials...sunglasses & leis. I packaged the goodies up in summer buckets & we walked to school today. Gracie's class ended up having a summer party & her teacher sent me a thank you along with a picture of the class sporting their sunglasses & leis. And Josie came home with a birthday crown. Happy Half Birthday Girls!!! :)
