Hey, It's a College Football Game




School is in full swing here and with the advent of school comes the influx of crud and gunk. The girls were sick for several days along with Dad, and then Little Man started sniffling as well. So mom has been holding down the fort while the family is on the mend. In between the sneezing, Hubby did take the girls to their first college football game. No it wasn't the game or the team he envisioned for his daughters, but they still had a great time. The crowd was very laid back and the girls really enjoyed meeting the mascot, copying the cheerleaders and yelling their hearts out! Hope you enjoy the photos, and for the record they are completely responsible for what they are wearing!

Labor Day Campout





School is now in full swing, but this three day weekend has been in the makings for a very long time. Back in May, the neighbors got together and decided we would plan on doing something fun to mark the end of summer. So a tent was borrowed, hamburgers were made, and a pinata was broken to mark the first annual end of summer backyard camp out. The girls were up until about 11:30 when finally two moms went into the tent to get all the kids to go to sleep. Most of the adults made it until about 1:00 am, just talking and holding vigil to see if the girls would actually stay in the tent. Luckily, I didn't pull the short straw and was able to sleep on the couch while one mom slept in the tent with the kids. Big girl came in twice to go to the bathroom, but both times she ran straight back to the tent- there was no way she would admit defeat! The girls are so glad they camped the whole night, and we are already planning the second annual labor day campout for 2010!
