Today was a great day for Ella and then she and Brickelle had an evening play date. Ella was so excited about it. This is the first time that they have really hung out since earlier in the summer. Sunny made clams, we had a chicken from Costco, rice pilaf and broccoli. This was the first time that Brickelle ever had clams and she loved them. After dinner, the girls got dressed up. Brickelle put on a Belle dress and Ella put on her Hannah Montana costume. They wore Hannah Montana and Annie wigs and posed for pictures. They had so much fun. After the posing and dressing and stuff, they settled down and watched the Hannah Montana movie. I think Ella had a great night. Last night we found out that Stella, Juliet, KJ, Helen and Ron are re-locating to Noe Valley for 8 months. It’s only about 12 minutes from us, but our lives are going to change. It’s not going to be so easy to just go next door and hang out. I am very sad about this. Ella hasn’t really verbalized her feelings, but tonight when we heard them come home at around 9:30, Ella ran out into the hallway to greet them. She noticed that Juliet was crying. She walked up to her and said, “Are you crying because you’re leaving me?” Talk about subconscious thinking or maybe it’s conscious. Anyway, we’re all going to be very sad. Now we have to actually make plans with our “family” next door!
This is from Thursday. Ella had some pretty hot braids that Ms. Alicia made for her. Maybe Ms. Alicia will give me some lessons on doing this to Ella’s hair. What do you think Alicia? I’ll teach you iMovie, you teach me braids.
Brickelle ate her very first clam tonight and loved it.
And the fun begins.
No – they weren’t having any fun at all.
2 happy girls watching the Hannah Montana movie.
How adorable! Ella and Brikelle together and in costume; I love it. So sad to hear your next door family is relocating to Noe Valley for 9 months. Will they come back, do you think? Love you. Mom
