School
This is what my kitchen looks like as the girls walk out the door to go to school. We move over the ice cream dishes from last night so we can have breakfast. Then we move over the breakfast dishes to make lunches. Then Lucy wakes up and has breakfast.

Hanna on picture day. I only buy their class pictures not their individual pictures,so here is a memory of how cute they look.

We celebrated our anniversary by going out to dinner at the Copper Mill. I had been dreaming all day of ordering cheesecake for dessert, but when dessert time came, they only had chocolate cheesecake (which I can't eat while I am nursing). So we went to Sam's Club and bought a whole cheesecake and brought it home to share with our girls. We left our girls with my brother & his wife, Doug & Emily. Carly only screamed the last 20 minutes. It was the first time we left her.

JILL'S BIRTHDAY
For Jill's 10th birthday we had sticky buns for breakfast. She got to go on a field trip at school and then to Activity Days. We went to Village Inn for dinner where she got a free piece of pie (but no fancy song by the waitress). Then we had some people over for cake and opening presents.She had her friend party on Friday after school. We had a pony party. They rode our pony, Sparky, I took their picture on the pony and they decorated a frame to put it in. They also roped the dummy and did stick barrel racing. Then they had cupcakes and pop and opened presents. It is a sign that Jill is getting older that she got 4 new items of clothes from gifts from her friends. She is past the toy stage of life.
