School pictures from this year. She is wearing the same thing she wore last year. She's my only child that has carried over clothes from year to year. But she doesnt seem to be any smaller than the kids in her class.

Rosebud was showing me the first aid kit that she made at a church activity. There's band-aids, and clean wipes, and two pieces of candy. The candy is in case of a volcano eruption, you can suck on it to keep the ash out of your throat.

Rosebud and her friends have started a "book club" at school this year, to read this series together.  These are pretty long books for fourth graders, but Rosebud is plowing through them.  We get them from the library so sometimes she has to wait for the next one to come in, which makes her anxious about the other girls getting ahead of her.  She's such a fast reader that she usually catches up pretty quickly though.

D & Rosebud got coupons from the library reading program to a corn maze.  The coupons were valid for the first two weeks in October, but since the first week is General Conference, our only opportunity was the second week.  Fortunately the weather was nice (cloudy but not rainy) and we had a good time.  D & Rosebud made friends last year with a brother and sister, so we invited them along as well. (Friends gave us extra coupons)

The girls ran around and did a lot of fun activities, and the boys dived into the corn maze and didn't come out til right before we were supposed to leave.  Good times for all, although B was disappointed that she didn't get to spend as much time in the maze as she wanted.



On the way home we stopped at an ice cream store and spent more coupons from the library getting free ice cream.  Winner of a day!

I asked D to clean the microwave and he unplugged it, moved it off the shelf on to a stool, and then scrubbed the ceiling laying on his back.

A treasure involving both my sons. I think Nut Brown drew the beholder and D added the spectator in the foreground.
