Nursery Rhyme Parade

On Monday Laurens Kindergarten class had a nursery rhyme parade. I tried to take some pictures but the Iphone doesn't do well with movement. -Bill




Dr Jessica

Jessica is very serious when she cleans the girls ears. She gets out the light and makes sure they are spotless. - Bill

Lauren's Church Choir Debut

Lauren is in the Angel Singers choir at our church, and this Sunday was her first performance on stage. She sang "Give Me Oil in My Lamp" and she did fantastic! My pictures didn't turn out the greatest but she got right up in the first row center. She has really enjoyed her weekly choir practice and jumped right up there with no issue on Sunday.

The Biscuit Brothers Concert

Central Market was hosting a fundraiser for a local theater arts group, and part of the event was a free concert by the Biscuit Brothers, a local children's music act. The girls just love them and couldn't wait to see them. They have to be two of the nicest musicians, and you can tell they love their job and love the kids! When they took a break between sets, they just stayed around and joked with the kids, took photos, and gave high-fives. The girls were so excited to get their picture with the Biscuit Brothers. We had a great afternoon sitting outside under the huge oak trees listening to music, letting the girls dance and play on the playground. It was a really fun day.

Playing with Grandma Luci and Grandpa Denny

The girls had a lively game of monkey in the middle with Grandma Luci and Grandpa Denny while they were here last week visiting. Can you guess who was the monkey?

Sweet Berry Farm

It's been a few days since we've posted, but a lot has been going on. So, I will start with our last little adventure the weekend before last and come to the present.
We took the girls to Sweet Berry Farm, which is about an hour outside of Austin. They had a corn maze, pumpkins laying around, sand art, hay rides, and a field of flowers to pick from (all you can put in a 16 oz cup for $1 - what a deal!). They also had a fenced in area of goats that we would feed corn husks. It was a nice afternoon. Here are some photos:

picnic outside

Last weekend after Dance the girls decided they wanted a picnic outside. The weather has been perfect here for the past few weeks. Mid 70's to 80's during the day and nice enough to turn off the air and open the windows at night. This is the best time of the year! -Bill
