September 30...273/365

I was completely speechless at the sight (after screaming for Quinn to get outside). We have an amazing God.

Cross Country meet today...one that I finally could make it to!!

Could not find her anywhere tonight when it was time to let her out before bed. She was curled up in Clara's reading chair in a dark corner of the room. She's not allowed on the furniture. She doesn't really look like she feels too guilty about it, though, does she?

September 23...266/365

The middle school sports teams were recognized at the Lawrence North homecoming game tonight.

September 18...261/365

The culmination of The Race was The Racies, a formal awards event. Students entered on the red carpet, dodging the flashes of the many ~~paparazzi~~ parents. Clara was on the Green Team, and was excited to enter on her new green scooter. A formal dress and heels while scootering?? Fun, fun evening...

September 17...260/365

Instead of a party, Clara invited a friend to join her at Cookies and Canvas (the kid-friendly version of Wine and Canvas). They don't get together too often because they live a whole 1/2 hour away :o), but Emma and Clara go WAY back...I went to college with her parents, they were in our first Young Married's Sunday School Class, and Clara & Emma were born the same (very hot) month.

Goofball...

September 15...258/365

Today would have been my mom's 60th birthday. Today the weather is just what she would have loved...feels like fall!! I thought about going up to the cemetery, but then I decided to drive to the orchard instead. She would have loved today at the orchard...

I don't know what happened to this tree, but it was right in the middle of a perfectly healthy row. I think there has to be a good analogy here...it was bearing fruit, but it definitely isn't the kind of fruit anyone is going to pick or benefit from. Matthew 7:17 "Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."

September 14...257/365

Yes, this is what our living room looks like after school. You should see the homework table :o(

September 12...255/365

New violin for the birthday girl!! Thank you, Grandpa...

September 11...254/365

Not a great picture as far as photographic quality, but an AWESOME picture of Millie's baptism day.

September 10...253/365

Cross Country...

September 8...251/365

She's been wanting these feathers for a little while now. Some friends gave her a gift certificate to the salon for her birthday and she got them today!!

September 7...250/365

If you're squeamish, just stop now and look at the next post!

I cleaned out the fridge today. This poor bag fell behind a shelf and was found under a drawer. Not good...really makes me feel sick to look at it. But it's my only picture from today.

September 5...348/3654

Drove up to Kokomo to have lunch with Matt's family today for Labor Day. We don't always stop at the cemetery, but the weather was nice today so we did. Flowers aren't as yellow as when Dad placed them, but still look good...
