A New Dynasty
Our new girls, Sue, Dianna, Ruby and Patty Jane (herding them from the back)

The "Way Back" Machine

One of the fun things about blogs is that you can archive anything and everything that has ever been posted. For no particular reason at all, I jumped over to October, 2004 tonight...

Start 'em early

No Fear

Just a random shot I had in my camera...

That Time Again

 

That’s right. It’s Picture Day at school!

Birthday Party at the Tree Farm

It was another picture-perfect day here, which was great because Lori’s daughter Lindsay was having her birthday party at a Christmas Tree Farm (and pumpkin patch).

Charles loved the tractors, but only Thomas would venture on the hay ride.

The boys each got to pick out a pumpkin and paint it.

And after the cake they children beat up a Dora pinata… A very long (no nap) day, but I think they had a good time. There are a few more pictures in the gallery.

Pre-school Fund Raiser

Dianne and I are at the annual pre-school fund raiser tonight. The boys are at home having a ball with Rosie and her kids. A night off... Not a minute too soon.

What a Beautiful Day!

Perfect weather for playing outside.

Heights Fesitval

The rain stayed away long enough on Sunday for the annual Heights Festival.

We made it there just in time to see the parade…

And of course, there was plenty of food and fun afterwards…

The heat really got to us, so after a couple of hours we had to head home. But not before making on stop at the grocery store, where the boys discovered coin-operated rides.

It was a great end to a great afternoon… right up to the point where Thomas threw up. And then he proceeded to keep us up all night with a fever. But he seems much better this morning – hopefully the worst is over.
