Back at home, and back to school


Our girls were so excited to start a new year of school. I'm still coming to terms with the fact that this is their last year all together in one school. Em, our big sixth grader, moves on to (gulp!) junior high next year (Grace is in third grade and Kate in second), and everything gets much more complicated! But for now, at the start of this year, don't they look beautiful?



Max loves these floor panels; we keep them in his room and he and his friends (and sisters, like Grace above) use them to make buildings.


Max made himself a "couch" (his word) with some of his other blocks. It doesn't look too comfortable to me, but he liked it!


This is a horrifying spider we discovered above our back door. I still get heebee jeebies thinking of walking under it without realizing for days or weeks. I put that rotini noodle in with it for scale. Maybe it's not big for other places, but it was one of the biggest spiders I've seen in Utah. YUCK!

Max and Daddy take an all-American rest in our bedroom. He's such a great little snuggler (I'm talking about Max here, though Greg is good for a cuddle now and again, as well!).
