Battle Day

Annie has this book that she carries around.

 

 

It is well worn as she reads it A LOT.

 

But it's NOT because she loves chemistry.

 

It's because if you flip open the cover

you will see on the title page that

it's not really about chemistry at all:

 

 

It's jammed pack full of girl stuff like:

 

and has solutions for girl problems like:

 

 

 I gotta say....I have tried ALL these solutions for bad hair
....& they are not foolproof.

 

and my favorite page:

 

 

Last week Annie was reading her "Chemistry" book

and noticed a fun holiday coming up in Southern France:

 

 

And even though we don't live in France...

we've never really been the type to let something fun pass us by.

 

So we bought some flowers and decided

to throw them at whoever we wanted :)

 

 

 

 

 

She was all ready to go

but school was cancelled

because of a snow storm.

 

So, when our neighbor came over to snowblow our driveway...

 

 

 

Annie ran out, threw a flower at him,

& then they took a selfie :)

 

 

 

Then Annie grabbed some flowers and my phone

& headed over to get our neighbor Cathy.

 

 

When I asked Annie how it went

she said, "She opened the door & invited me in

& then I threw the flowers at her."

 

Cathy said,  "She's gonna tell her company

tonight where she got the pretty flowers."

 

So watch out.

If you see a little girl who looks like she is straight from Sochi,

she might just throw some flowers at you in honor of

Battle of the Flowers Day.

 

We have more flowers to throw

but I wanted to get this posted so you still have time...

...to get some flowers!
