In September, we decided to have 3 yard sales! The first one was awesome! The second one stunk, and the third was was just okay. Overall, we did pretty good. I was happy, 'cuz we got rid of a bunch of stuff, and made $1200! :) Everything that didn't sell, we took to the good will.
Sydney participated in the Palouse Triathlon this year, and she did a GREAT job!!!
She started with the swim portion
Then she biked
and finished with a foot race.
Great job girls! I'm proud of you!
Mike and I celebrated our 14 year Wedding Anniversary!!! Time sure does fly by! I'm so glad I found my best friend 14 years ago. I look forward to what the next 14 years has to bring! Mike took me out to dinner a little early, since he had to be in Texas on the actual day.
We took the kids to the Latah County Fair.
Sydney begged to go to La Casa Lopez for her birthday. She wanted to wear the big sombrero hat and for them to sing to her. She loved it! (She didn't like the fried ice cream though).
Free ice cream cone at Baskin Robins after school. :)
Brooky and I surprised her with a decorated house and presents after school :)
Cheesecake Sampler from Safeway was her cake of choice.
Ending with a shopping spree at the mall with her birthday money. She LOVES shopping! She can out-shop us all! :)
Then, on the weekend, she had 2 friends stay the night.
She wanted to decorate her cake herself :)
She did a pretty good job!
All the girls decorated tee-shirts with glow-in-the-dark paint at her party
Lots of trampoline jumping, in-between the rain
Presents
Cake
Sydney had a great 10th birthday! Her celebration lasted almost the whole week! :)
Here are a few random pictures of Brooky from September. She's my little shadow during school!
Brooklyn was very happy to have the side rail off her bed. Now she's a big girl :)
She loves playing in the leaves
And loves it when it rains, cuz then she gets to wear her rain boots and walk in every single puddle she can see! It takes us forever to walk anywhere on rainy days! :)
She's doing really well in Gymnastics. Last week she held her "wacky wall" for a long time!! :)
She was the only one in class this day :)
She's doing better on the balance beam, but still has a hard time letting that left foot lead.
She didn't care for the trampoline swing too much :)
Poor girl had to have some fillings and crown; and in December, she gets another one on the other side. Turns out she has Enamel Hypoplasia, where her enamel didn't form properly. Hopefully her adult teeth are better!
The traditional huge dollar cookie at farmers market! :)
Hopscotch!
Here's a pic of some of us at farmer's market, when Tara & Tamara came to visit us!
