A girl's sleepover

Claire had some of her friends over yesterday for a sleepover. Since starting middle school, she doesn't have any of her friend group in any of her classes so we are working hard to keep this wonderful group of girls together and help them to continue building strong friendships. Eva, Claire, Addie Hicks, and Austyn had some fun playing 4 square and volleyball in the road.

Karsen joined a bit later and the girls had a blast on the trampoline!

The group for the evening! Addie H, Claire, Austyn, Karsen, and Eva. Addisyn M was able to join at 11pm!

We set up a movie night out on the driveway and the girls had fun with some glow sticks, popcorn, and their favorite candy! So thankful Claire has a solid group of wonderful girls to grow up with!

 

Getting one last swim in before the pool is too cold!

What do you do when it is still 90 degrees in the middle of October? Well, you go swimming of course! Claire had to have some fun one last time in the pool before it gets too cold to swim for a few months. She had a blast doing all kinds of different jumps!

I had to throw in this picture of Claire and her hamster, Comet! I think it is just so precious!

Not sure how she has grown up so quickly,

 but here is Claire's 6th grade school picture.

 

Celebrating Karsen's 12th birthday

Claire was invited to celebrate her bestie turning 12. The girls had so much fun and the pictures are so great! Claire got to spend the night with her friends Karsen, Eva, Hinley, and Addisyn.

                                                     The girls did karaoke and face masks
