More Pretending



Look closely and you will see Noelle is pulling a stroller around with a rope. Why? Well, because according to her and Libby's game it isn't a stroller. It's a horse. A horse named Fudge. Libby also has a stroller, oops I mean a horse, she pulls around with a rope. I haven't heard it's name yet. They have been playing horse for a couple of weeks now. They even take the "horses" out in our pasture for training. It's amazing on so many levels. I won't go into it any more than to say that childhood is so precious and it will break my heart when Libby grows out of this stage. Long live the stroller horses (they are super cheap and very well behaved)!

One giant post!

I haven't posted on the blog for quite a while. So, here is a post of what has been going on the last couple of months. Here are some photos of Libby and Noelle's dance recital. They did such a great job! I love to watch my girls dance.





It's garage sale season again and I found some sweet fabric scraps at one of the yard sales. I decided to see if I could put them together as skirts for the girls. I think they turned out pretty sweet. I had fun making the headbands too.



Last day of school party. Camping (Daren style) in the front room.





We had smoothies and watched Dukes of Hazard. Does it get any better than that?

Noelle's preschool graduation



Daren's birthday. He loves lemon squares, so he got that instead of cake. The candles were suppose to be trick candles (this is what Noelle was anticipating)but Dadddy packs a powerful punch because he blew out the candles and the went out for good. Bummer, we were all ready to trick him!


Libby's second grade program. I had to create a headband for her that made it look like she had just been squirted with ketchup. It wasn't my crowning achievement, but it made her happy. I also made both the headbands pictured below. They are much cuter than the ketchup!






I've posted dental pictures before, but it continues to be one of the girls favorite games so you get to see more. This time they hauled in a chair (a nice dirty one, I might add) from the garage that they felt was the perfect one for dental procedures. Hey, their teeth sure are clean!
