Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Luau 2011

A few weeks ago I received an invitation that looked like a Hawaiian shirt and asked me to please join Ella's Pre-school class for the Mother's Day Luau!  This is an annual tradition at her pre-school so this is our 3rd luau :-) I happily got a babysitter to come take Sadie, borrowed a Hawaiian Sarong from a pre-school mom-friend and off to school we went!
The kids sang for us and then each child gave their mom one of the leis they were wearing
Then we feasted on fruit kabobs and brownies the kids had put together
Ella and her best buddy, Sophie

Sophie and her mom Liz, a great friend of mine :-)
The silly side of the girls doesn't take long to emerge :-)

Limbo!


Not sure which kid knew about congo lines but this went on for quite a while
  
Ella's buddies Sophie and Carly
