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!

The Nutcracker Ballet

On Saturday, we attended the Sugar Plum Fairy Children’s Ball luncheon with my cousin, Barb, and lots of ladies from the Beckett side of the family.

Harper loved all of the food at our fancy lunch.  The kid’s appetizer had fruit, cheese and ham.  The main course for the  children included chicken cordon bleu, macaroni and cheese, and steamed green beans.  She also enjoyed rolls and most of my mashed potatoes.  She loved the fancy cake and mousse desserts too!

Harper got to meet the Sugar Plum Fairy.

After lunch, we headed to the Kauffman Center to see The Nutcracker ballet!

Barb has been attending this event for 20 years,

so we had excellent seats!  During intermission, we got to attend a party with special treats and drinks.

It was such a fun day!

Halloween 2019

We had a great Halloween this year!

We carved a Hello Kitty Pumpkin

and went to a Trunk or Treat event at church.

Harper got a coupon for an ice cream cone

 at the McDonald’s trunk

and she walked the plank for some Pirate Treasure.

She hung out with a mermaid

and pretended to be a mermaid too!

She had a party at school

and got ready to trick or treat.

We went to a few houses

then Harper joined some friends for more trick or treating!

She got a LOT of candy!

Happy Halloween!

A Busy Saturday

Yesterday, Harper was in the Jesse James Parade.

She rode on the float with the Studio 320 dancers.

The forecast was for rain, but we made it 

through the parade without getting wet!

Later that night we went down to the Power & Light District.  We ate dinner at BRGR.

Then we went over to the Sprint Center

 for the JoJo Siwa concert!

Harper picked cotton candy for a snack.

We saw my childhood friends, Jennifer Thummel

and Stephannie Booth and their daughters, Dalilah and Reese.  None of the girls are looking at the same camera, but I love this picture so much!

Harper was so excited when JoJo came out on stage.

We had great seats and Harper sang and danced for hours!

We had so much fun at the JoJo Siwa concert!

Cheerleading Mini Clinic

This week Harper attended a mini clinic

with the Kearney High School cheerleaders

and the Golden Girls.

She learned a cheer and dance and got to

perform at the football game!

During the cheer, she got to be a flyer!

She loved it!

At halftime, Harper danced with the Golden Girls.

It was fun hanging out with her friends

and meeting the Bulldog!
