Then they changed took pictures, had dinner at Julie's house (Ethan's date), attended the dance and then came back here for some games. Quite the night and a good time had by all. Ana's date was Jordan who just lives a couple houses down from us and Julie is in our church ward. I think this was a great opportunity for the kids to get to know some of the kids in this area better and will hopefully lead to some good friendships.
It was a bit of a crazy day as Ethan had a swim team dinner on Friday night and got home pretty late. Then he had to be at the rec center at 7 am to get ready for a district swim meet at 8 am. So at 8 am Troy and I dropped off some centerpieces at the church for the ward breakfast and then went to see Ethan swim. We watched him swim the 50 m freestyle and then we headed home to grab Ana and head to the ward dutch oven breakfast. It was really yummy! It was nice to visit with a couple of our neighbors and then we headed home a little after 11 am to finish setting up train stuff and filling the bags with frosting for the kids. Great day, but never ending :)
Fun dance pictures! Good looking kids. Friday after school my nephew, Austin, came over and helped me organize all of the train candy and open all of the candy bags into bowls. He did such a great job. So we each made a train to test out the frosting and cookies. Then Ethan joined in showing Austin how to make walrus teeth... yep, that's how it goes around here.
