Carpet Graffiti

The other night Ellison was practicing her Awana verses, coloring in her book which she wasn't suppose to be doing.  I took the book from her, left her sitting there and told her I would be back to get her.  I really thought we were past this point, so the thought never occurred to me.....

 

 

 

I'm still a little perplexed how the crayon wrote on the carpet, I can't imagine how hard she had to press.  What is bad is I didn't notice it initially and Els had already gone to bed, so when I questioned her she had her lie down pat.  Typical.

 

Silly Camera

We had family pictures the other night.  For some reason Wayne wanted to take our camera too.  I've tried to understand, but I don't really.  We have a few out of focus pictures of deer, a couple pictures of the scenery and a couple really blurry shots of the girls and I in one of our poses.  He didn't carry it along very long, before he finally gave up.

We had the pictures done at Berry College, which is beautiful.  This is one of the scenery shots.

During the silly portion, he did break out his camera phone to capture The Red Head.    She was hilarious!!!!

Feeling BLUE

These two...I could squeeze them in to pieces.  One of them has really taken to the camera.  The other, is starting to give me some serious 'tude about the camera.  I'll let you guess which is which.

 

 

An Amazing Day!!!!

On Saturday I was scheduled to help with the Special Olympics thru Shaw.  This little lady was all kinds of giddy, after helping last year, she was ready to help again this year.  It turned out they had so many teams they ended up with games on Sunday too.  So we headed back up there Sunday.  The girls had a blast and Wayne and I were in awe all day.  Such amazing spirits, such a great group of people to get to share the day with.

 



Divas at Dinner

You never know who you might be going to dinner with or how they might accessorize their outfit!!!!

 

To the Farm we go

Our annual trip to the Pumpkin Farm happened this year on a weekday.  We couldn't find a Saturday to go with all our Fall activities, so I took a day off work.  I think the girls had a good time, although 300+ pictures later I'm pretty sure they wished that I would lose the camera.  I was pretty pleased with some of the shots we got though.

 

 

She got mad at me, when I told her she looked like a jack o lantern.  Come on the teeth look like a jack o lantern, right?

 

After the pumpkin farm, we went to the Falls for a picnic.  The girls got to play on the playground before we went on a little hike.

 

I wanted to get a shot on this tree.....of course Els didn't follow instructions.....

 

Then, I got this....we were nearing the 300 mark I wasn't going to get much cooperation.

 

The biggest tree I have ever seen.
