September Part 2

Reed and I used to meet C at the bus stop and walk her home.  Then she pleaded for us to stop, so she could walk with her friends, and feel like a big girl.

 I would LOVE to know his thoughts on this...

 The Waste Warriors were so impressed with Charley's thank-you letter for her first $50 reward, that they sent her a second $50!!

 Coop

 This boy ALWAYS ends up in the water.  Sheesh.

 Grandpa came for the weekend.  Took him to JJ's.

 Pulled out the bigger bike...  he did well!  I still tucked it back away for a bit...

 First night of Arkansas Philharmonic Youth Orchestra.

 Dressed up and ready for school.  Field trip day to library.

 I happened to be passing down this street when they were leaving, so got some sneaky pics!  Can you match his shirt above to the kid below?  He's fourth to the left of yellow crosswalk...

 See him in the middle?  Holding hands with his friend Hadley.

 Charley's 3rd grade Olympics.  Chu's Champions.

 That's her on the right of sign.

 Reed found his preschool friend Ari's little brother Kai and dad (C went to school with big brother Levi).

 Reed found a mass of frog eggs (late October?!?) and wanted to show everyone.

 Belt test - he moved to yellow belt.

 Mom's donation to Canopy's big fundraiser.

 Many of the refugees did a dance for part of the entertainment.  Odette is in the middle.

 I didn't know she and Christian would be attending tonight - was a nice surprise!

 This lady's name was Sara, so she wanted a picture with me.

 The giant grass in front of our house is no more.  Now we have a native black chokecherry bush.

 Sweet friends.  Kate provided the hydrangeas, Colleen the maple syrup from Canada.

 Girl Scout carnival.

 I also tubed with C the day on the lake with the Brophys.

 What a sweet boy.  Kindergarten photo.

 C sewed this apron with Ms. Lori!

 SO out of order.  Not sure why.  Back to our girls day out.

 Homeschool.

 Coop.  All about butterflies and life cycles and metamorphosis.

 Special book - same one Mom taught me to read out of!

 Hiking club at Crystal Bridges.  Always have to squeeze in a shuttle ride!

 Look what keen-eyed Elijah found!
