One of the local high schools hosted a fun afternoon event for kids. The high schoolers decorated the trunks of their cars, had activities for the kids and handed out candy to the Littles. I have been asked if we can go again next year…and we just finished 10 minutes ago 🙂
Little #1 has been learning about ancient Egypt at school for the last few weeks. The culmination of their unit was today’s bartering fair. The kids all dressed up as Egyptians and sat behind their desks with two colored pieces of paper labeled “keep” and “trade.” Parents wandered through the hall and were able to barter with the kids. Little #3 really enjoyed the task of bartering stickers for us.
Uncle Jason made a surprise visit tonight and brought a book for Little #3’s birthday.
Birthday costume party for a classmate of Little #1. He had a blast! Games, candy, dance party, cake & ice cream. Great way to spend a rainy October day!
Swimming lessons Saturday is here. Jake sent me a few play by play pics.
Apparently today was life jacket day.
Little #2 was the only one who jumped off the edge.
Little #1 taking his turn off the diving board.
Little #2…full speed ahead!
Little #3 watching from the pool deck…again. Next session we’ll get her in the water.
We cheer through the best times, love through the difficult ones, and are thankful for everything in between.
No matter what.
Here’s to the start of our next year together. Happy anniversary to the man I love so very much!
We are Golden Gophers, but who can resist this sweet face in her Bucky gear? This outfit is compliments of Aunt Stacie.
Paging through the Fleet Farm Christmas flyer on a rainy October, yes October, day. Guess Santa will need to keep his ears perked from here on out.
Little #3 was on the pool deck this morning watching Little #1 and Little #2 in the water. After their lesson she apparently went up to one of the pool employees and said, “I’m by three! Which lessons can I take?” Guess we will be signing her up for lessons next session, too.
Fall is here and the oven being used! My little helper and I are making cookies today. Yum!
