Autumn 2010

It's been a while since I last caught up with photos and such ... so here goes:

Pajama day happened to coincide with G's 5th birthday.  I was able to sneak in a take a few pictures without getting discovered.  On the left is Corbin, her true love.  On the right is Reese, her best friend.

Some brilliant parent got all the kids in the school candy apples.  (sigh) 

But the girls sure did enjoy them!

G really got into modelling her new princess dress for Halloween - N, on the other hand, wanted no part of it.  She just hid in the corner and pouted.

Oma got N this dress a little while back.  It's constantly in the wash.  Whenever she has it on, she's delighted to be in her "yewwow dwess fwom Oma's house."

A dear, sweet lady from church named Louise Tower invited the Swann-Cope gals to tea.  Oma, Mama and the chicklets got dolled up and tried to be on our best behavior for the fancy to-do.

The kids are role-playing by washing dishes.  My only question is who modelled this sort of behavior - certainly not their mama (she uses the dishwasher)!!


The following are all from Grace's 5th birthday bash: (so sorry we didn't get pics of everyone who came!!)  Thanks for all of you who made it such a special day!

Last, but not least, a few of the things I've done to try to maintain my sanity:
