February 2017

February was a month of birthday celebrations!  Isabella had a roller skating party and then we went to a water park at Massanutten for Wills birthday celebration. The girls enjoyed guitar lessons, pajama day at school, teddy bear tea for scouts, Thinking day for scouts, Mardi Gras king cake and unusually warm weather.

Nine is Fine

Isabella celebrated her 9th birthday with a roller skating emoji themed party.  On Bella's actual birthday she chose to eat out at a Hibachi restaurant. Isabella lost a tooth at dinner so it's was special to have the tooth fairy visit on her birthday. Isabella is growing into a sweet, thoughtful, honest and beautiful girl. We are proud of our Bella Boo!
