Flying Kites

Olivia, Jolie, & Sophie made kites & tried to fly them in the backyard.

Jumping with Sophie

Meet Sophie's Pony, Snow

Sophie walks Snow around the yard everyday.

And sometimes Snow has to come with us when we go places.

Miss Sophie-loo

She found a dress at the store and changed in the  car. Still wears PJs when it's time to wash the dress. 

She pulled both of her loose teeth all by herself. 

Relaxing at the park

Well, some of us relaxed. 

For the WWII class I teach in our commonwealth, I took the boys to the park to run around with a 50lb. pack- over tables, weaving around trees, circling a pavilion, dodging kids, & going under a bridge. It was entertaining. This is Austin's happy face, right? 

I lounged in the grass & helped Sophie into trees.

A hiking we will go

Artsy Girls

I love my creative girls! I love their art style and passion and messes. Ok, maybe not the messes exactly, but I love how they aren't afraid to get messy. 

Acrylic paints: Sophie's are the 3 in the column on the right. Jolie's are the 2 in the middle of the bottom row. Olivia did the rest.

Chalk pastels: inspired by The Lorax.

Markers: plans for our garden this year

Adventures of Sophie

Mrs. Tweet

With Sophie's help, Mrs. Tweet has taken up residence on top of the fridge. 

Soon there will be a Little Tweet.

Muffin Makers

Carpet Burn

I don't exactly know how a 5 year old- attempting to swat a fly on the ceiling-  falls off a stool onto her nose. 

And gets a carpet burn.

On her nose. 

But it happened at our house. 

Little Girl Fun

While Austin & Nyah are in classes on Thursdays, the little girls and I have been having fun at some of our favorite places.

I forget what she was sooo upset about (it wasn't sitting on the sheep), but gotta love that adorable face!

When the bigs are away, the littles get to play

While Austin & Nyah were off to Shakespeare Showdown, Kurt had a day off and we played with Olivia, Jolie & Sophie.
