Snow Creek

Today we went to Snow Creek in Weston.

Harper was a little nervous the first time 

we rode the tubes down the giant hill.

After the first trip, she was begging to go again.

She loved riding the belt up the hill too!

She giggled and giggled.

We had a great time tubing at Snow Creek!

Harper’s 9th Birthday

We had a lot of fun celebrating Harper’s 9th Birthday!

We opened birthday gifts from 

Aunt Christy while she was in town. 

On New Year’s Eve we ate dinner at Red Robin

then went to Main Event.

We played games

then went bowling.

Harper was pretty good!

For her birthday breakfast, she requested

cinnamon rolls, bacon, eggs, grapes, yogurt and a macaron!

We opened presents

then played all morning.

Harper chose Hong’s Buffet for lunch.

She needed 2 plates for all of her food!

This year Harper wanted a traditional Chinese cake.  It had fruit on top and was not as sweet as most US cakes.

On Sunday, we had her birthday party

 at the skating rink in Liberty.

She had a good time skating

with many of her friends.

We ate pizza and cupcakes

and made accessories from glow sticks!

Harper got to put her handprint on the birthday wall!

She had me write her name so 

“she wouldn’t waste her skating time.”

It was a great party!

Christmas 2019

Harper and I had a busy and fun Christmas season!

We saw Frozen II at the MX4D theater in Liberty.

We decorated the tree

and visited Santa.

We saw the Liberty Light Show with live musicians

and watched Elizabeth perform in Elf Jr.

We made a gingerbread house

and sugar cookies!

Harper sang with the children at our church and we

attended the Christmas Eve candlelight service 

at Pleasant Valley Baptist Church.

On Christmas, Harper was the last one to wake up!

We opened presents.

Harper chose cinnamon rolls, scrambled eggs, 

ham and fruit for breakfast.

Harper won at the game of Life!

The weather was perfect for trying out her new electric scooter (while wearing her unicorn bathrobe🤪)

The next day Christy and Lexi came to stay.  

We went out to eat

then saw Cats! The movie was horrible but we laughed a lot!

We had Christmas at my cousin Barb’s house and Harper met some new friends.

It was a wonderful Christmas season!
