Our little people. We love them.

I was just being silly while sitting on the sofa one evening. But, I liked it. :)

"Hey, Benjamin."

"Meow."

"What makes you say that?"

"Meow."

"Oh, I see."

The B.O.I. has taken to reading lately. We're pleased

Kim and Abby recently went up to PA to visit the Tubbses. They went to a children's play-type museum for the afternoon. The following conversation was recorded:

"How much?"

"Apparently, it's free."

"Cool. Let's get more."

Eggs. Gotta pick only the good ones.

Sweeties!

Happy girl (with camera -- see below).

Even though they live far apart now, when they get together, it's clear they still love each other very much.

Our school sponsors an annual dress-up party, for those who aren't into the whole Halloween thing. Sean got to be a froggy.

He also got his first-ever lollipop. He was enthralled.

Abby got to be a kitty -- she got her face painted at the party.

We carved pumpkins a few days ago. It's a messy job, as Abby soon learned.

Seanie wanted to see what was going on. He put himself in mortal danger to do so, as you can see here.

The finished product -- Sad, Happy, and Oh (He's Japanese).

In Abby's kindergarten class, they've been learning about God's creation of the universe, and they finished it with a 'Creation Day' party. Abby was a (wait for it...) butterfly!

We got the B.O.I. some new PJ's. We thought these were fitting.

Are you lookin' at me?

Abby's Big Birthday Weekend!

Two weeks ago, Abby turned six years old. We had a super-busy weekend -- Friday was a birthday party at school, followed by a birthday party at home with Grammy and Grandpop. Then, on Saturday, Abby was part of our school's homecoming weekend, acting as one of the 'Little Princesses' who brought flowers to the homecoming princesses. All in all, we think she had a blast. Happy 6th birthday Abby!

Abby and mommy made some strawberry cupcakes to bring for Abby's in-school birthday party.

Abby really seemed to like sharing her birthday with her little classmates.

Alas, though it's not good, it's the only action photo of Abby blowing out her candles.

Abby has allways loved taking pictures with our camera. So, we got her a cheap little digital camera of her own. So far, it's been a big hit.

We celebrated Grandpop's 70th birthday this weekend, too!

This is an excited face.
