Summer Party

It has been seriously cold here this week-there was a day when the high was 7 degrees. One day, after school, Ashley suggested that we have a summer party, so we did. We dug out all the leftover party supplies we could find, played games like pin the face on the clown and drop the clothespin in the jar and of course, we ordered pizza. The girls insisted it wouldn't be a party without pizza. I way overtipped the delivery guy since he risked freezing to death just walking to our front door.

In other news, Ashley will now wear jeans. We have gone for nearly two years with her only wearing dresses or stretchy pants, (and apparently, it's contagious, because Paige won't wear jeans either..) but when it's this cold outside, leggings and cotton pants just don't cut it. We have a couple pairs of jeans and cords that are just sitting in her drawer, so last night, I got them all out and asked her to try them on and if she didn't like them, we would just give them to her cousins. It was just like Green Eggs and Ham. She was pulling them on saying, "I don't like them. I won't ever wear them. Even if they fit, I don't want....HEY...THESE are jeans? I like them..." So she wore pink cords to school for the first time. Crazy girl!
