We've been busy beavers! Let's start on the 8th ... with Madeleine's birthday. We let Madeleine pick the menu for her birthday dinner, and she chose spiral noodles with butter and cheese, broccoli and strawberry milk - on fancy plates (she picked out different ones for everyone) and in fancy cups. Then, purple cupcakes for dessert. We had fun.
Two of M's favorite presents this year were the purple Barbie unicorn that Mom and I picked out for her, and the purple rocker Barbie from John and Barb.
We took Julia's pictures on her birthday (the 10th). I can't believe our sweet girl is TWO! She's such a ham :)
We went to West Concord to a walk up ice cream bar for J's birthday treat. M got "blue goo" ice cream and J got her ice cream in a cup. Good thing, too, because she had more fun walking around with it than eating it. 

J's very favorite gift was from Aunt Stacy. The whole family has been having fun with her singing picnic basket.
On Saturday the 11th, GM Elizabeth came to take M to start a new tradition. M didn't want to go alone, so I was invited to come along while GM picked out a new school outfit, and then out to lunch. M picked out a pretty denim skirt, pink shirt and Dora shoes.
Just a few random pictures... :)
Church camp started on Sunday. That was an intense week! I led the Kindergarten group from 6-8:00 each night. We had a different story each week (Noah, Joseph, etc.) and then we did dances and had a really grand time.
