Kira's dance

A few picts from the dance show (back in June)

Pillows

 

Nat and Kira made these at sewing camp this summer.  Nat's is the green one and Kira's is the pink one with kitties.

Nat and No

The (obligatory) first day of school picture(s)

2nd, 3rd and 5th grade.  The last year all three will be at the same school. 

Nat will go to Middle School next year!

Uncle Joe is visiting.  He was in the shot last year.  

We hope he comes back next year!

The cake

We did her age in binary on the cake.  It's not every year that you're all ones.

Tia is 7!

The bike was in the garage when we came home from gymnastics.

It took Tia a moment to SEE it but when she did she was thrilled!

Mysterious

We went to the Mystery Spot for Joe's Birthday.  No one knows why you have to stand at about a 17 degree lean, but you do.  It was a fun touristy day.  Natalie does a little lean; Joe demonstrates how you can climb a ladder like stairs when you are at a 17 degree lean.  Cool, eh?  Tia demonstrates standing on the edge of a table at a lean and hanging at a lean.  Nick doesn't panic.

Nat and T

 

Last pictures from Wanda.  Thank you!!!

Nat swims

 

Also, thanks to Wanda.

How cute are these???

Again, thanks, Wanda!

Tia

 

Here are a couple of pictures Nick and I didn't take.  A friend, Wanda, took them.  We'll post a few more fun ones she took, too.  Thanks, Wanda!!!

Touch your nose with your toes

You do this every day, too?

Catching some rays...

The brothers.

Sunday's party

Judi's brother Joe visits. We hung out with our wonderful friends. Pool party and lots of yummy food.

Nick's second swim of the year

It was a beautiful day, but we were all confused by this turn of events.

Dance camp

Tia at Dance Camp! She went twice this summer; she had fun, and learned a lot!

Dance Star

When Tia went to dance camp, a couple weeks back, they made these Hollywood stars! She is a little dance star!

More on Patches (our summer visitor)

Summer visitor

The guinea pig from Nat's 4th grade class came to visit over summer break (for about 3 weeks) and she got to play outside with the girls.  Super fun!  And, we have gophers in the back yard. Ugh.

Houston, we have (some) wood

Nat's new room

Upstairs hall

Upstairs hall looking into Kira and Tia's new room.

Our new bedroom!

We also have a moisture problem downstairs that has to be remedied (and almost is) before we can put the wood downstairs.  We needed some more venting under the house.  Ah, the good times of a remodel.
