Ame's friend Layla invited her to join their family
to see the Nutcracker.
They got to go out to dinner first
@ Wingers. Ame was soo excited to have
ribs and asphault pie. Man that girl can eat!!
(when it is something she actually likes)
Ame LOVED the show, even though it was quite
long and she didn't get home until VERY late.
She even bought a crystal ornament as a souvenier
(with her own money).
The week of Thanksgiving, when the kids had a few days
off, we decided to let them have a movie night WITH friends.
Kaipo had Campbell over and Ame invited Layla (of course).
Mom tried to find a friend who could join Ash, but no luck.
He didn't seem too disappointed though.
Ramona and Beezus
was the movie of choice
(cute, cute show)!
Complete with pizza, homemade hot cocoa
and lots of treats.
Nalu didn't want to miss out on all the fun
Ash is content just havin' his Mickey Blanket and pillow,
while hangin' out with the BIG kids!
These two are best pals and pretty inseperable.
I am soo glad they clicked so quickly this year
and have become such great friends, especially
since Ame had a bit of a hard adjustment
at the beginning of the school year,
with joining the Spanish Immersion Program
and not knowing anyone/feeling out of place.
Layla's mom teaches at our school
and is the English teacher in the
Spanish Immersion Program for fourth grade,
so Ame and Kaipo will each get to have her.
(Kaipo has the little sister, Marina, pictured in the
nutcracker pic above, in his class this year).
