Mother-Daughter Ice Cream Social

Tonight, Elizabeth and I were able to attend a Mother-Daughter Ice Cream Social at our Ward. I have been looking forward to my night out with Elizabeth. We don't get as much one-on-one time together anymore.


As part of the event, we got to create and decorate a hat for the hat parade. Elizabeth was very into this activity...me, not so much! Elizabeth loved picking out decorations and gluing them onto a ribbon that we then tied around the hat she brought from home!


Elizabeth colored a beautiful picture and made two fruit loop necklaces, one for me and one for herself!


On a side note, I have to say that I had nothing to do with Elizabeth's outfit. She has become quite independent and wants to dress herself. This is what she came up with for tonight...


After completing the crafts, and participating in the hat parade, Elizabeth enjoyed a yummy bowl of ice cream. There were so many different toppings.


I am so glad that Elizabeth and I were able to get away and enjoy an evening together. It was so nice to be able to just focus on her. Hopefully we can sneak away again sometime real soon!
