It was a crazy, busy weekend for us.
Friday night Keilee was asked to be a Zombie tour guide at the historic Princess Theatre. She looked like a zombie I guess but it was a bit disturbing! She sent a picture to a really good friend of hers and he told her, “It makes me want to find someone and beat them up. You look like you were abused!”.
She was so excited to do this. They had different areas ‘zombified’ and it was similar to a haunted house. Keilee and the man who works there are the only 2 that did the tours and she had a blast. Like she said, “I really like being in charge.”
The little girl in the picture is Emma Jo. Emma Jo is who Keilee fell in love with (and vice versa) during Aristocats. She saw on Facebook that Keilee was going to be a zombie and begged her Mom to take her. She ran and hurled herself at Keilee and wanted a picture. Keilee told her ‘I am so sorry I look so gross” and she told Keilee, “You always look beautiful.” They are so sweet together. Keilee has plans to surprise her Thursday at her school and eat lunch with her.
Saturday night she was invited to a 1940’s Swing Dance. We ordered her dress weeks ago from China and paid $11 for it! Including shipping. She found shoes at the thrift store for $2.99. She worked so hard on Emma’s birthday present. I wish I had made pictures. She made a board book with quotes and pictures of them and it was beautiful.
Sunday after church she had an hour long Elsa party. She always loves being Elsa and seeing the kids so excited that Elsa and Anna are at their parties!
She told me Sunday night that she was so ready for Monday and the chance to just be “Keilee”.
Even though this week is shaping up to be really busy at least she can be ‘herself’.
Homeschooling Rocks!

Karen, she is so beautiful, even as a zombie! My children have been watching some of her videos – please do tell her she is doing an amazing job!
Oh, my! What an actress she is. ..I believed she was each of these personalities! She looks like Marilyn Monroe in the forties pictures. (I mean that in a good way…I am a MM fan.)
Fun! What a fun (but tiring) weekend.
She always just seems so happy. Homeschooling has allowed so many kids to just be themselves. One of the best things about it, I think.
Awesome! What a blast she is having.
Blessings, Dawn
Keilee really rocks that 1940s look.
