First day of school


Well, better late than never! Here it is....The first day of school pictures!!
The kids were SUPER Excited! I stayed home so that I could put them on the bus. They chose their clothes very carefully.
Notice the skull and crossbones on his shirt. It is one of his favorites!

Isn't her new haircut adorable?

They ran, and I mean RAN up to the top of the driveway to wait for the bus.
Goofing around
Cute face, hunh? I had to have them facing the sun to take the pictures.
See that scab on Mia's shoulder? She took a digger at Oma's just a couple of days before.
Nathan was protesting having his picture taken facing the sun. It was already getting hot at this point, and the bus was late.
See what happens when I shoot facing the sun? I like this picture anyway.

Last day of Freedom

Sunday, the last day before the first day of school. It was FUN-TIME!!!

We planted seeds in our new pots...probably the only time Amy will allow that much dirt in the house, ever!
Bucket o' stinky dirt

Our fancy flower pots
Mixing all the magic together
FLOWERS! They will bloom as their minds bloom in school...or that is the theory.
Concentration
Poking holes for the seeds. Poke, Poke, Poke.
This is Amelia's pattented Pinkey Poke
Sprinkling the tiny seeds
The aftermath. Thankfully Chris thought to put down these big sheets of cardboard. Cleanup was a snap!
Only got a little on the floor. And it was my fault!
Playing legos
LEGOS!!
Goofiness!!
MAJOR GOOFINESS!!!!!
SUPER-CRAZY GOOFINESS!!!
We finished off the day with the movie Night at the Smithsonian, with snackies of chips and flavored H2O.
Dinner is burritos and then off to bed early, because tomorrow is....Duhn Duhn DUH....The First Day of School!!!!!

Monday with Pilar!!!!

Today the girls (Pilar and I) went to the Jay indoor yardsale and the free store in Rumford. The only picture of this day is our goofiness at the Moose in Rumford? Mexico?
Or maybe there is more than one...how about this one....
Or this one....what is up there?

I love my Pilar!!
