First Soccer Game

September 19, 2016
They could not be cuter.  K was only four but since he knew the coaches he got to be on the team too!





 Keagan's body language is hysterical.  "Get UP off the ground Holden."
 That's better - act like you are paying attention.
 Even better if you out your game face on.
 Look how little he is!




Yard Sale

September 9, 2016
Can't believe they are ridding themselves of all this baby stuff.  Could it be because the babies are now the big helpers?






Day 2

September 8, 2016
They seem just as happy to go on Day 2!




Reading in bed

We read in bed because reading is halfway between life and dreaming.


Little Chefs

September 7, 2016
A chef must think like a scientist, organize like an accountant, plate like an artist and cook like grandma. 

Today's skill...making melon balls.  Cut the melon in half.  scoop out the seeds.  hand it to your brother to drink out all the juice.



 Oh yeah!  Got a melon ball!


A Spoonful of Sugar

"Would you like an adventure, or shall we have tea first?"  - Peter Pan

The boys are all at school so Charlotte is at Snappy's for tea.



 She thinks she needs a teaspoon of sugar in this tea.

 Well, maybe one more.

 Well....maybe...just...one...more...
 Snappy's not looking - directly in her mouth.

School Bells Ring - Are You Listenin'?

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson Mandela


 How did this happen?  They simply cannot be this big!

 Two summers ago, teacher Ginny had just moved here and volunteered at Vacation Bible School.  Emily had a broken leg and VBS was mandatory even though K cried EVERY day.  Teacher Ginny basically held him every morning as Snappy dropped him off.  She has loved this little guy ever since and what a lucky guy he is to have her as his teacher this year.

First Day

"You're off to great places.  Today is your day.  Your mountain is waiting, so be on your way!"  Dr. Suess




 What teacher won't love a kid who wears gloves for the first day?!
 Wait.  The girl in the window wants to know what is going on.
 Excuse me.  I need to squeeze in here.
 ok.  so I am here now.  Why don't I have a sign....looks like her brothers don't want to tell her.
 She DOES have one!
 This. Girl.
