Sister McCabe, Gayle's assistant for her Activity Days calling in the Primary (8-11 year old girls) tells the girls about exercise. Julia McCabe leaves with her husband to go to Guam on a mission next month.
Next the group went to Eastridge ward building gym to do a Zumba class.
McKel poured her
second bowl of cereal all by herself. Can you tell?
The little ones enjoyed some Valentine's Day suckers (or as Avril called it, "Balance Times" Day).
What's a little pure sugar gonna hurt anyway?
In spite of the sisterly rivalries, they have a lot of sisterly love. Here they are in some Valentine's outfits.
Dressed in some new dresses and showing affection.
Here is what they do for most shots, before we select the good poses!
For Avril's birthday she had requested a Princess theme. Here is a pineapple/orange cake that Gayle made for the occasion.
Another view of the royal princess cake.
We set up for a royal banquet.
A fruit plate that was part of the feast.

McKel was running in her royal dress and tripped and hit her chin on something. It cut her chin and she bit her tongue and she bled from both. Here she is with her chin bandaged up.
Here is Alicia, another Fair Maiden of the court.
A good sorceress came to the kingdom to participate.
Group shot of the ladies.
Three granddaughters.
What is a magical kingdom without a dragon?
Getting into character, scaring a Fair Maiden.
And of course there were crafts in the kingdom.

Some of the feast.
The Princess's birthday request of spaghetti was honored. She is now four years old!
And also from a royal family, Duke Jared came by for the festivities as well.
Duke and Duchess Adrian and Arleen attended the celebration.
The sorceress Brittney brought her friend Jamie along too.
The Princess blowing out the 4 candles (not all at once though).

A birthday party means royal gifts.
Opening another gift on the royal sofa.
Back in time...guess who else liked to dress up like a princess.
And here's another girl celebrating her 4th birthday!
After snow most of the 23rd, Sunday the 24th was a clear but cold day. We have lots of snow around the house.
Looking out our front door.
The piles are still growing, but March comes next week and they will soon shrink.
