On Saturday, Lily and I had a morning out with friends. We went to Pottery Lane for Christmas craft fun and lunch with Natalie & Emma and Katie & Katie Anne. Katie, Natalie, and I always have fun Girls Nights Out, and we all decided it would be fun to get the little girls together for some fun memories as well.
We started at Pottery Lane, where the girls carefully picked out an item to paint. There was so much to choose from - miniature Santa Clauses, plates, mugs, and all kinds of Christmas ornaments. They all decided (with mommas' help) on the same Christmas ball ornament to decorate. We got settled at a table with red and green paint and the girls got started painting.
It was so cute to see the girls working so hard to paint their ornaments just right. Even Katie Anne, who's about a year younger than Emma and Lily did a great job. We moms also did a good job resisting the urge to "fix" their projects! The finished ornaments won't be ready for a few days, as Pottery Lane bakes and glazes them so that they will have a pretty finish. I can't wait to see how they turn out.
After painting, we went out to lunch at a yummy Mexican restaraunt and got to catch up for a bit. The girls were so cute together - they giggled for about 10 minutes straight about absolutely nothing and loved making silly faces for each other. I'm so grateful to have such wonderful friends and love that Lily now calls Emma and Katie Anne "her friends" too.
