Cindy Lou Who and Cho Chang


Jordan had the skin between her two front teeth chopped off and I got my wisdom teeth pulled. She looked like a Who with the big upper lip and I looked like Cho Chang with my fat cheeks. When we were lead to the car slightly dazed and loopy, the nurse was a little uneasy when I excitedly whipped out the camera to get an "after" picture. We both look so drugged and happy!

Battleship


For mutual on Wednesdays the beehives were in charge. We set up a battleship court complete with grids and and water balloons. I got REALLY bored blowing some water balloons up. There were about 600 balloons in all, i only blew up about 100.

Strawberries




This year we got so many strawberries. Sam and Jackson helped to both to pick them and eat them. Once a bowl was filled Sam would put it in the wagon and haul it over to the door.
