Pirate Day at school

Thanks to Sarah for the photo!

Jack shall have a new master.

He shall earn but a penny a day

Because he can't work any faster.

Skeletons in the house!

School picture day practice

Manners day

David's class is having a tea party today to learn manners. Girls are all into it--gloves, hats, dresses, etc. Boys are just wearing ties that belong to their dads. David went from tea party guy to frat boy in about 2 minutes, with shirt untucked.

Did you know Batman rode a dinosaur?

Let them eat cake!

 Congratulations to my godchild and niece, Dorothy Jane, on being one today!

And a very happy birthday to my baby brother, Patrick, on being 1-away-from-30 today!

MC is a dancing fool!

Waiting on the train...

...and a nice honk of the horn from the conductor as they passed underneath.

Old Fisher Price toys

are the best.

Bread!

The kids (all 3) have discovered that they just LOVE M.A.'s homemade bread. Poor Ned can barely salvage a piece of crust for himself.

Flashback: Meeting the Mouse

She didn't get the memo

that her mama is terrified of ladders. She climbs like a monkey, but she won't be in the yard with a ladder anymore!

Sunday lunch with best friends

The parents (Ned and MB, L&O) also enjoyed lunch hosted by parents-to-be Sandy and Barett.

Cooling off

with popsicles in the tub.

Pretty dress, pretty girl

Morning "pops"--a lazy breakfast
