Conference

Conference weekend.....
So relaxing and fun spending all day with eachother listening to the amazing talks that were given.

 Keeping the girls some what quiet so we could all listen.
 Making yummy cookies
 And yummy brunch in between sessions!



Fall Time

We took the girls on a little nature walk/scavenger hunt to find things to decorate our porch with.
I LOVE FALL





 

Soccer has ended...for now!

Each week Oaklee and I would watch big sis practice. I would chat with Rebecca, Oaklee would play with the boys. I loved it!! Now its freezing and I'm glad to not be out in it. Payton has decided she loves soccer and wants to play MORE! Yes, I am loving this. So now we will find another league to play in... WAHOO!!


 We were out of town for team pics, so this is all we've got!


 Her last game was absolutely freezing! All the girls were bundled up and running around in puffy jackets. We loved playing with Avery!!
 Her trophy and ribbon...she loves it and thinks its great that her name is on it!

Joy Sshool Fun

Kennedy has LOVED her preschool.
It is so fun to watch what she come home with and the stories that come along with it!
In a few weeks it will be my turn to teach and I can't wait!!
 
"H"aunted "H"ouses
This week was the Joy of the Body... this is Kennedy in sugar cookie form :)
This picture shows their personalities to a T!
Kennedy exhausted after school and Miss Oaks goes non stop in the car.
"G"hosts
 The Joy of Nature.
They made bird feeders and she HAD to hang hers in the tree!
 They also planted a flower this week.
Mom does not have a green thumb... this flower didn't have a chance!
 Field trip to Belleview Park. Such a cute place.
The mom's decided since we were 1/2 way there we NEEDED to make a stop at Cafe Rio :)
Twice a week I get 2 hours with just this cute bug and I LOVE IT!!
Can't forget about Payton!
This is her 1st grade picture... why is she growing so fast!! We recently had her Parent Teachers Conf. and of course it was great! :) She is reading at an advanced level so her teacher is keeping her interested and thinks she will end at a 3rd grade level this year. Payton has an amazing photo graphic memory. We are so lucky she loves to learn and helps teach the girls. We will be in the car and you can hear her teaching Kennedy how to add numbers with her fingers, and teaching her times tables.
We are so PROUD of you Miss P!!

Gram's Granola

Gram Taylor's GRANOLA!
This is one of my favorite things my mom and I would make. It is SO GOOD and so easy. I wanted to have my girls help, ya know make those memories! It gets tricky trying to take pictures and help them make their cups into the bowl... but worth it!
I want them to look back and remember making Grams Granola!






 Ready to bake.....
 Ready to eat!
This lasted about a week!
 YES 3 cookie sheets lasted a week, guess they like it as much as I do!!
