Bekah's One-Liner

Yesterday, my mom came and got the girls to run some errands with her and was serenaded by Emilie and Bekah during the trip. At one point, mom asks, "What more could a grandma ask for?" And Bekah replies, "Another song?"

And I might get some birthday pictures and updates up here soon. But don't hold your breath.

I Think She'd Say This is her Favorite Present EVER!



Bekah sure loves her little kitty! Smokey got out the other night and Bekah was in tears as we were trying to get her to come back in. :)

Oh, and Bekah got her hair chopped off the other day. She says it's a little too short, like a "boy's haircut" (oops!), but I've reassured her that it'll grow back. :) Next time, we won't go quite as short!

...but boys seem to be much harder on these glasses!

Well, Nathan's only had his glasses for a little over a month and has managed to significantly scratch his first pair and break his back-up pair. Pair number 3 is in the mail. I almost ordered 2 pairs when I ordered the third, but thought I should wait until his re-check in November to make sure his prescription doesn't change again. I'm rethinking that now. :/

75% Glasses Rate



We're shooting for a perfect 100 before we're done. :) Have a feeling Nathan's glasses are going to be harder to keep from breaking. :/ His back-up pair is already in the mail. (The second pic is intentionally a little farther back...thought I'd show off the new window covering as well.) :)

Emilie's "Wharf"



So Emilie forgot to watch where she was running...and ran smack into the side of the deck. Brad was pretty impressed with the welt on her forehead!

Cleaning Out the Car


Sam, helping vacuum the van while we were still on Robinson.

The Old Purple/Yellow Room



We needed to re-paint this room before the renters moved in, so we let them pick the colors. I didn't think to mention, "not red". I strongly dislike painting red (had to put like 7 coats on the walls flanking the fireplace in that house). But I liked the way it turned out -- and it only took 2 coats. :)
