Hey, Dat de me (Aurie's words)

All dolled up for an ice cream social...

Who did it? She did..

Sisters walking, hand in hand, first day of school..

 After dinner popsicles in the backyard..

nothin like a good jaunt through the sprinklers in your underwear ;)

 or, nothing at all...

(I couldnt resist :) love this one...she looks like a sprite or woodland nymph caught on film )

 The bare walls are making for great backdrops..

Pssst...hey dad-deee....

Mommy's installation of her organized life backsplash..

We tried out water balloons! :) (Thank you poor unsuspecting Grandma who thought mommy would buy something practical with that gift card! ;))

 And Nana, that catipillar has been a big hit at the pool!

Dance class is just fabulous!!!!

How much- is that Aurie, in the window...?

Daddy loves his new airplane :)

 First day of school (before I had to leave mommy)

some pretty sunsets here in Indiana..

First day takin the bus to school (Again, before I had to leave mommy)

An awesome discovery of a Saturday morning market in a town nearby...

Aurie's room, starting to look normal...

Addition of a 'princess corner' in the girls room...

(dresses to be hung on future moulding with knobs)

 and a dance mirror...

(with an additional barre, soon...)

Aurie's first movie experience...Brave

 We all appear excited, but left halfway through! :)

An observation day at dance...

(somewhere very near the beginning of this, I started balling my eyes out ;))
