Dirt Party for Tuck and Char

We went to Chattanooga for the twins Dirt Party.

 Carson and Catherine were there too.

 Trying to get a successful picture of these five cousins...

...not very easy.

The original two.

 Char, Katie, and Tuck

Aunt Kate gave Katie these glasses and she wouldn't take them off.

Jack and Katie

Kate has committed to making her kids birthday cakes every year. This is Tucker's Cake.

 Saturday evening we went to the Corn Maize.

 After getting lost in the maize...

 ...we rode the coz train.

 We love fall!

 Nancy directing the whole group..."do not let the kids stand up." Once a teach, always a teacher. 

 This past weekend made me excited about our two big trips coming up with everyone...New York in October and Disney World in the spring.

Dauset Trails...First Field Trip

Maggie had her first field trip on Friday...

 ...Dauset Trails! 

 The whole FPD Pre-K went. 

(Maggie is the white bow in front of the tree.)

 Maggie, Elizabeth, Olivia, and Abigail

 I loved getting to meet all the kids and their parents. This is just the first of many field trips! 

 Mags and Me

School Days, Shoes, and Lucy's Birthday

Each week Maggie's class has a color day. Last week it was Yellow.

 She also made m&m cookies for her class. On the way to the car, she said, "take a picture of me next to my favroite tree."

 The girls love Jack's drafting table.

 Katie will put on ANY shoes she can find.

 Lucy had her 2nd birthday party on Saturday. 

 It was a car party.

 The girls loved the theme!

 Zoey Willingham, Katie, and Lucy

 Kit Kat

 saw these two holding hands on the way home.

Belle

It was costume day, last Friday, and Maggie was Belle.

 Since Maggie has outgrown her Belle costume, she passed her old one down to Katie. Maggie is imitating the pose she saw Belle do at Disney World.

 Katiebug dragged her costume down the hall for me to put it on her.

 on Saturday, we had a picnic

 my girls and me

Around the House

Katie is bursting at the seams with personality and spirit. 

 I say "spirit", because she is a little more rambunctious than Maggie was at this age.  

 It's been a while since I've been to Booty Barre, but the girls still like the moves.

 This is a glimpse into Katie's personality...

 ...she loves doing whatever Maggie does.
