October 19, Ve went Saw-whet Owl banding with Kiki. It was a little late so Ve was tired, but well behaved. Tuks and I stayed home since she was feeling ill.
Last weekend Kiki went with us to Oklahoma on stage. It lasted 3 hours long with only one 20 minute break . The girls did fantastic!!! I did bring writing tablets along so that they could draw & write. We also rented the movie and watched it a few days before the play so that the girls knew what the storyline would be. I was VERY proud of them!!!
Last Thursday, Tuks wore her Halloween outfit to dance class. She was a Senorita "Princess"
with the rest of the class. Her cousin N was Tinkerbell in green.
Ve's first Halloween,and Tuk's fourth...as usual it was and is Tuks all time favorite holiday, and I believe Ve agrees whole heartily
This is how Ve went from house to house, in a full out run. It didn't take her long to figure out how this whole trick or treating went.
a little break
Kiki, Tuks, Ve, and friend H.
the highly dynamic cousin trio
having fun, and yes it was this cold
checking out the haul...see the bowl in the middle of the table....from two buckets. We share all the candy with everyone in the house. I feel it solidifies the concept of family.
very pleased with the night!!! LOL
As for Mim's homecoming..she will be home by next weekend!!!

1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.
Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
