Hannah's art at school

We are very lucky at Fisher Elem. to have a wonderful art teacher. Hannah really loves going to art class and has a great time. They just put up some of their hard work in the halls at school and its so cute to see my little girls work up on elementary school walls. So fun. The teacher has a blog about what the kids are doing and I wanted to share the lastest project. The owls are so sweet and so cute and are allot of fun to see in the hall on the way to her class room.

Look at the picture that is 3rd from the bottom. That is Hannah's hand working very hard on her owl.

A fun rainy weekend

Fall has come into town with gusto. The gray rainy days are so blah, but we've been making the best of them. The girls and I went for a rainy day walk yesterday and then today we went to the St. Christopher's Fall Festival, drove around U of R campus and then the children's museum. It was full day. Here are some fun pictures.

Happy Fall to one and all.

excuses, excuses

So you might have noticed that I haven't posted in a long long time. Welllll, we have all been sick sick sick. I came home from Chicago in Aug. with a wonderful sinus infection that moved to my chest and ears. I then passed it around the family and got it again. Those where some fun weeks. And to top it all off Greg was laid off from his job the first part of September so we have had a handful of stress around here. And with the start of school and other stuff that comes along with that I just haven't even thought about my blog. But things are getting back under control, well except for today when Hannah threw up 15 times my 11a, but dad dealt with that while Kate and I ran out of the house as to not get puked on. We then got a call from Greg around 3p that she hadn't thrown up for 3 hours and that the house had been disinfected and was ready for us to come home again. But I have to say Kate and I had a great time hanging out together today. We don't get much one on one time these days so it was nice just the two of us and Greg said the same thing about just him and Hannah, although allot of it was her puking, but he said once that stopped it was nice to just hang with each other. Which reminds us that we need to do more one on one stuff, I think it really helps the family.

So on our adventures today Kate decided to wear a black cat costume that was Hannah's a few years ago. It was fun having a little black cat in tow all day and she even got her face painted to match, what fun.
