Penn Pals

George Fox University's mascot, Pennington the Bruin, hosted a pizza and ice cream party for everyone in the Penn Pals club during a basketball game last weekend.  Our three little Penn Pals were super excited to attend!

There were athletes representing almost every sport there to give autographs to the kids.  They loved it!

Ice cream!

And a few games were set up around the room.  It was a super fun night and I am so impressed with the community relationship with George Fox!

Laurel's Birthday Party

On her birthday, Laurel was blessed with a snow day from school!  What a perfect way to start her 7th year!  In the afternoon, two of her good friends came over to help her celebrate.  We started with games, snacks, presents, and play at our house. 

 

 

Then, we started "Laurel's Favorite Things" party!  We went to the pet store to see what kind of fun animals they had.  Unfortunately, no puppies that day.

 

Then, on to the candy shop.

 

And we ended our day at Shari's for hamburgers and milkshakes.

 

And a free slice of pie for the birthday girl!

Happy birthday, sweet Lolo!
