The front yard garden produced tomatoes, peppers, and okra
We also grew greasy beans in the backyard. This year the girls were a big help de-stringing them.
Labor Day we picked early season apples at Parlee Farms
What's this? The rope pully goes up, up to...
a hungry goat on the platform in the trees.
Caroline's first day of school. First half-day. First half-day of a half-week. Followed by a four-day week. Then a four and a half-day week. But seriously, Caroline transitioned well to the new school and after-school program. Her favorite part of it all is riding the bus.
Our new sleeping arrangements. We're all in the back bedroom for two months while the upstairs is renovated.
The girls big bedroom was originally two smaller rooms before the previous owners remodeled. We're going to pay our contractor to re-install the old wall to create the new girls' room and a nursery.
And in the storage space we'll have a walk-in closet and a new master bathroom
We went to Atlanta for our last trip of the year. Erin was a trooper again and made it through take-off with no tears, just being held on Mom's lap.
We took Grandma Lu and Aunt Sue to the Georgia Aquarium
Japanese spider crab, said to be the world's largest living arthropod
Erin needed comforting after getting bowled over on the splash deck
Fried chicken from the Brickery made it better
For completing the town-wide scavenger hunt we received our blue ribbons at the Lexington country fair
The girls have been on a puzzle kick lately
Thank you Wonder Pets, for introducing the concept of teamwork
We hope that kindergarten doesn't sour our sweet Caroline
