I was outside with the girls the other day. They were happily playing in the driveway. I was raking leaves. Without any notice, they all decided the wanted to go in. Off they went. Except one...

N (age 6): Mom, are you going to be okay outside by yourself? (very thoughtful to ask, I thought. The real question is,"are the three of you okay in the house by yourself...")

Dutch Wonderland

My nephew turned 5 this month. My sister decided to spend his birthday at Dutch Wonderland. It was a perfect day.

We let the girls get glitter tattoos.

What a silly girl.

The kids played musical chairs. It was a fine idea until the first 2 kids out were the youngest ones. They, of course, started to cry. Oh well!

Catherine looks really happy to be on the Whip.

Notice the fear in her face now. She hated it. Natalie did her best to console her.

It was a super day with family and friends to celbrate our special guy.

Apple picking

One beautiful Fall Saturday we decided to go apple and peach picking. We had a great time.

First Day of Preschool

Catherine started preschool today. She was so excited. So much so that she's been carrying her backpack to the bus stop every morning and afternoon. She just wants to do what her sisters do.

Thankfully, she had a fun morning!

The First Day of School

The girls were VERY excited to start school. Thankfully I didn't cry this year!!

My Mom made their dresses.




Mema and Poppy came to see them off too. Grandma was also there, but somehow I missed taking her picture with them with my camera.

Notice that Catherine has her backpack on too. She's very excited to start preschool soon.


Dennis follows the bus to school so he can get some shots of them getting off the bus.

The Day Before School

We had a fun family day as we celebrated the end of summer vacation. We swam at a neighbor's pool, went out to dinner and then enjoyed some ice cream.

It's been a wonderful summer!
