Here they are reading their lines. #1 wrote "Will you go to the ball with me?" on a piece of paper for Ryan to read. She wrote "Yes, I will." on her piece of paper. And that was the end of the play. A lot of work for two lines, but she was proud of herself! It was cute!
Here we are with our girlies. Don't I have a great husband?!
The girls were enjoing a nice fall day....
playing outside before the cold weather got here....
The girls helped Ryan plant a couple of trees. We purchased another Tulip tree. We planted one at our first house and were pleased with it. We also used tulips in our wedding, so I like that we have a tulip tree! Ryan also found a maple and transplanted it. I think he found it growing in one of our other beds...we'll see if it survives!
Back in the spring....before tax season was over....Ryan and the girls were trying to figure out what to do while I worked one Saturday. The previous home owners had left a small flower bed next to the garage....maybe 4 or 5 feet long. Ryan decided to let the girls plant flowers in it. I have enjoyed that bed all spring, summer and fall and cannot wait to have even more gorgeous flowers next year! Since the girls like "instant gratification," Ryan bought a few six packs of various flowers to plant in the bed. That way they had something pretty to show me that day. But he also purchased wildflower seeds and sprinkled them all over the bed, too. The girls and I both had so much fun checking the flower bed to see what new flowers were blooming. And they kept blooming, and kept blooming! Even after the first frost, we still had flowers in that bed. It was amazing. Here a few of the pictures we have of the flowers. At the very end of the summer, I cut a few and put them in a vase. Next year, I'm going to do that more often so I can enjoy them inside, as well as outside!
Playing in the playroom......
Here are Sweetie and #2 hanging out....can't you tell that Sweetie was being "sweet?!" (I guess I'd be fighting back too if a 3 year old was holding me by the neck!) By the way, #1 has decided that we should change the cat's name to Cutie. "Because she's not really sweet, but she is cute!" She has a very good point!
I found this picture on the camera one day and had to ask Ryan what it was! Apparently after bathtime one day, he put a green plastic barrel from the Lincoln Log set on her nose and got this super cute picture! I love it!
This is how Ryan spent many, many evenings this fall. He took a course at the U of A in order to get a certification that he wants for work. He only needed 3 more hours of physcial science. He could take freshman level geology, or a senior level course called Karst Hydrogeology. He opted for the senior level course because it would pertain to some of his projects at work. WRONG CHOICE!!!! Next time he will opt for the easy A! He had field trips and a presentation and LONG homework assignments! I'm proud of him though. He stuck to it and worked hard and got a B in the class!
(do you see Sweetie sleeping by his leg? She LOVES to curl up on HIS lap every night. We can both be sitting side by side and she chooses him. I think she knows that he doesn't love her as much as the rest of us, so she's trying to woo him. Cats are like that, aren't they?!
The girls took Daddy's spot, so then he had to try to get all 3 of us out of bed and ready for work and school! Yuck! What happened to the days of seeing Ryan off to work and the girls and I hanging out at home in our jammies until after lunch?! They went by so quickly!
