Fun in the 40 Degree Sun

The girls are getting me!















GoldyLocks is being awakened by the Little Black Bear!








The wanted to ride in the back of the truck but I made them walk in hopes they would be exhausted on the way home. It worked! Ellie fell asleep in stride and was out for 3 1/2 hours while Olivia was out for 2 1/2 hours. That equaled 2 hours of peace and quiet for me. What a blessed day!

Leslie went to Nashville for the day to study up on diabetes or something. The girls and I braved the weather and hung out at the golf course for a while. We played "Goldy Locks and the Three Bears" and "You Can't Get Me!" (A personal favorite of Olivia's).

Olivia's first cartwheel!

Me and the girls!

So Ellie didn't really want to be in the picture. can you tell?

Notice the little boy in the back? That is Evan, a boy in Olivia's class.

Ellie bearing her chest to the world. she is a riot.

One of the few watermelons from our garden this year. I accidentally cut it up too early. Oh well, at least the bugs didn't get this one!

Ellie says, "I'm Briar Rose and she is Ariel."

In case you miss it.

4 Fists full of candy at one house!! Great job Ellie and good job Olivia with the shy facade! Who says little kids aren't trainable? The candy god was good to us this year.
