Back to School

After a 4 day weekend Gabriel did not want to go back to school. Lucky this hat, a badge, and a bag full of fire safety activities changed his mind.

Sienna lost her first tooth!

This girl has had a wiggling tooth for days and last night she pulled it out. We got a bag of reeses and rented Ugly Dolls to celebrate. It was great timing because I have a cold that just won't go away, so it cheered me up

 

Fall Kids Photo shoot 2019

Fall in Vermont

It was a rainy, gloomy but beautiful day yesterday. Here are some pictures.

 The girls and I made gum drop molecules.

 After school swinging.

 A failed attempt at pictures...the sun was in their eyes. The first picture is the background I was trying to get.

I also did pictures with the girls this morning. We couldn't do the $500 they charge for professional photos here, so I tried my best....they aren't professional but I think I got some good ones. I will post those later. 

Celebrate Conference

Hearing the word of God from His living apostles and prophets is a thing to celebrate.

Practicing with our frosting tips.

 Driving between sessions to pick out carving pumpkins.

 At the store to pick pumpkins.

 Gabriel and our strawberry shortcake after conference treat.

 I learned how to tie friendship braclets.

 His cute face.

Activities not pictured: chips, cheese ball, pigs in a blanket, letter crafts, and the foam super hero outfit Sienna made for Gabriel.

My favorite talks so far are Elder Eying's about Job, Uchdorf's about it adventure, and the first talk in women's conference. I am also excited about the celebration of the first vision the President Nelson announced.
