Erin at age 11 joins the odd squad with Mom, Dad, Tai-Tai, and Tundra
We all wish that Erin would be a littl niser to Tessie
Tessie joined her sisters on the Hayden Dolphins Swim Team. The age cutoff is Nov. 1st and she swims in the 6-and-under bracket. As the only entrant in her age group for her first race, she won a first place ribbon!
Tessie's turkey of thankfulness
Thanksgiving with Grandma Lu
Wouldn't this be a good jigsaw puzzle, with all those badges and patches and then the big furballs in the middle?
One of Erin's party requests was Boda Borg, where Potions continues to confound us.
We hosted a house party featuring a home-made pina pinata
and the 9 11 year-olds trashed the basement
Tessie's birthday dinner request: Chipotle
Age 6 for Tessie had moments of being Loving and Defiant, but it was mostly continued Sunny and Serene. We'll see about age 7 and Life in a Minor Key because she's already showing signs of being Lively and Outgoing.
How many of these have you seen?
The girls had 2 snow days before Christmas. That's Tessie out there cleaning off my car - thanks!
We cast that cursed English tea into the fire to commemorate the Lexington Tea Party
An unexpected package arrived from Wyoming. Back in Sep. 2017, after visiting Fort Laramie NHS, we mailed in the adjunct Junior Ranger booklet for Guernsey State Park because it offered a chance for a badge and coin. And look what we received 30 months later: metal WY State Parks badges and the one-of-a-kind Junior Ranger coins!
At Wilson Farm, we made a gingerbread house
and brought it home, where Tundra immediately went to work on the frosting
And here's what it looked like 2 weeks later. The girls nicked the candies, but the frosting removal was all Tundra, one lick at a time
On the solstice, the ice at Arlington Reservoir froze and was fantastic
(actual photo taken right before Erin's wake-up for school)
