Visiting the Duck Park
Today we decided to head out to Shelley Lake to feed the ducks! It had been awhile, and we had a ton of bread heels to distribute. It started feeling like fall today, so Kendall wore her first long sleeves of the year and her sparkly red corduroy pants. I’d been waiting months for her to be able to wear this shirt! It’s an adorable parody of the classic AC/DC logo, but it says AB/CD instead, to fit in with the preschool set. 😉 It makes me chuckle! It attracted a lot of...

Today we were happy to unveil a project we’d been working on for Brian–this Lego table!

But it’s just too cute, and you can’t really see it in her portraits. So, since we had a little time after school today, I let Kendall play in the sandbox while I snapped a bunch of photos. Let’s enjoy the last of summer however we can! Even if that means flinging sand on...
