Bundled Up!

The days are getting COLD! On our last day of soccer games we had to come seriously bundled up. It had been in the 20s the night before and so the temp for the games never got above 42 degrees with a slight, chilly breeze in the air! The baby and I spent the whole time in the warm car after a failed attempt to watch from the sidelines. It's definitely Autumn here in the desert of Eastern WA. It seems as though the seasons just changed overnight. Maybe it's always this abrupt. I don't remember from year to year. I really should write things down to help that problem. I can't begin to imagine all the wonderful things I've already forgotten.

Weapons & 2yr. Olds

Libby fell asleep like this on a car ride one September day. Don't worry, it's a wooden dagger. I thought this was rather cute in a dark sort of way!

She was so out of it that I removed the knife and had her "pose" for another photo with a wooden gun.

Irish Dancing

Avi will be joining an Irish Dance studio come January! She's pretty excited about it. Here she is posing in her dance gear, complete with Ghillies!

Praying Before a Game!

UPWARDS Soccer is over for this year. It was another fun & exciting year of practices & games. Our last games were this past Saturday ~ October 3rd! We'll be looking forward to another soccer season in 2010!

CRAZY Hair Day

Ready for our CHECK homescool co-op! It was 'crazy hair' day...

Cowgirl Roping Tricks!

We watched this gal's show & REALLY enjoyed it. She was like a cowgirl comedian with cool rope tricks!

Oh yeah, and she got TEN BUCKS of our hard earned dollars so the big kids could each get a kiddy lasso of their very own!

Ponies at the Fair

These are the same ponies the kids ride every year at the pumpkin patch. This time around though, Avi was a bit disappointed that she didn't get to ride RENO. She was on MIDNIGHT instead! She's too big for RENO now. They reserve him for the littler kids. I'm guessing that maybe you'll be seeing pics of Libby on Reno come the Fall Festival time of year!

RED Spider!

Azriel found this interesting looking spider while taking out the trash today. We tried to identify it without any luck. Never seen one like this before. Have you???

Watching the Rodeo!

Aren't they cute?!
