Now, after over a month, I'm back and prepared to catch you up on life for the Frankwick Family in January.
On January 1, 2014 Dad and I woke up early to start the year off right. We ran the Commitment Day run together, and had a blast!
We were an inspiration to the rest of the family!
Back at home, Mom, Macie, and Presley spent their time cleaning the house and taking down the Christmas decorations. When we got home the family spent the day together. Thanks to our awesome Dad, we now have our very own playground in the backyard.
We spent lots of hours over break playing at home. While Macie and I play, Mom pulls Presley around in the wagon while she waters, rakes, and picks up the yard. Presley loves being outside!
At night we like to jump, and Presley loves watching us!
Over break from school we spent lots of time riding bikes. Macie even learned how to ride hers without training wheels! It took her two trys before she was racing up and down the road.
Winter break flew by and before we knew it we were back at school. Both Macie and I were excited to see our friends again.
Presley was glad we were back too- it meant she got to play on the playground at Chaparral with Graham and Macie.
The week after we started back at school we had our 100th day. All of the kindergarteners got to dress up like they thought they would look when they were 100 years old. I told Mom that I wanted to be fancy like Granmda Jensen when I am older, so Mom and I set out to make an outfit that Grandma would be proud of. We were really proud of the finished look.
We made glasses, jewelry, a dress, a cane, a pair of shoes, and I was able to use my hat, fur wrap, purse, and fan to complete the look. I refused to let Mom put wrinkles on my face and told her that "although I knew I would have wrinkles when I was 100, I did NOT want them now"- Mom couldn't stop laughing.
Here is what I will look like when I am 100:
Mom was able to come to school with me, and watched all the festivities first hand.
Before lunch, all the kindergarteners lined up and marched through the hallways singing at the top of our lungs. It was AWESOME because we usually have to be quiet.
By the end of the month we were all back into the swing of things. Mom had spent lots of time sewing while we played, so Riley and I modeled some of the new clothes she made for us.
Before long, Macie and I were having a rocker pose off:
Over break Macie and I had a blast spending our days with Presley. She is SO much fun, and is growing so fast.
