The Little Things

Well, I guess we're getting ready for the season here.  We spent the weekend defacing and mutilating pumpkins, going to festivals and getting all painted by Moogie and Aunt DD and whatnot.  Between Dad, Kris and myself we took over 100 pictures.  Some highlights…

 

 

 

 

 

On an unrelated note, Katherine started her gymnastics class again…

 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 11   (That last one was by Daddy)

Saturday was a special day.  Katherine had her 6 year old birthday party.  We had a small gathering and she had a blast.  Some memories..

  

The monkey now wants to climb everything that's taller than her.  Including me at times.

 

 

 

Here she is opening her first present from her favoritist big brother.  Dancing Barbie Princesses.

 

 

 

 

I'll have to be on the lookout now when I'm napping or I might end up looking like a clown.

 

 

 

 

Here's the party gang.  We had the ice cream truck come and Katherine thought that was great.

 

 

 

 

Ahh, well.  Here's a pinch to grow an inch, little one.  We'll do it again next year, huh?
