Glimpses of our last weekend

 The girls had a fabulous time in St. Louis.  They got to see the sunrise from Mimi and Poppie's deck...

...and goof around lots with Poppie.

 We visited Grandma Lois for lunch...

 ...and made elephant tooth paste!

So much fun!

Picnic

 The girls did Magna Tiles while waiting for Stephie's ride...

...and then Haley had a little while by herself to do some puzzles with Bobo...

 ...before meeting up for a picnic after school.

Art class

 Ho hum.  You know what would be more exciting?

How about painting a wall?

 Or making this little guy.

 Also, check out this awesome bubble cannon that the girls got from Sean and Owen!

First day of JK!

 Stephie is officially a junior kindergartener!

 First day of class in the big school:

Here is Mrs. Wiltz reading them a story called The Kissing Hand...

 ...and they did a craft with the same theme.

 Here is their hello song.

 Stephie in the cloister of the school.  Big girl!  She had a great day.

One last trip to Jumping Water place

School starts tomorrow!  One last day for art projects...

...laundry?

...and a trip to the mall for some rides and jumping.

Stay tuned for Stephie's back-to-school pics tomorrow!
