Turkey Tags

Pinterest has given me MANY great party ideas.
I thought nothing would be cuter than seeing three and four year olds with these name tags around their necks...
Turkey name tags.
So cute and so easy.
Sissy loves hers...
Lily (a.k.a. Mya) wanted to try one on for size as well...
Can't wait for these little turkeys to sport these tags!

Back to the Bob

Sophia's hair was beginning to get a little shaggy again.
So we went back to the tried and true style that I think looks best on her.
The bob.
Although this picture doesn't show it, I swear she is happy with her haircut...

That's better...
I LOVE this sassy little cut for my sassy little girl.

My Pet Dragonfly

Early this morning we set our clocks back.
I don't know about you, but every year when we do this, the day seems to last an eternity.
Not that I am complaining.
It's just that the kids tend to get a little antsy.
Luckily the weather was perfectly fall-like and they were able to play outside...

Sophia saw me snapping away with my camera and came over to let me take pictures of her throwing leaves in the air...
While gathering leaves, she discovered this little dragonfly and decided to make it her pet...
The dragonfly didn't seem to mind.
Maybe because it was dead...
Sophia didn't seem to mind that one minor detail.
She kept playing with her new friend...
Then went back to the leaves...
Lily wouldn't sit still long enough for me to take any really good pictures.
So I took what I could...
It's nice to have days like this once every 365 days.

Super Sleepy

Something leads me to believe that all of the excitement of the past week has finally gotten to someone...
This is one super sleepy Sophia.

Acorns for Fall

I found this cute little snack idea on Pinterest and thought it would be great to make for Lily and Sophia's class as a way to welcome fall...
Super simple.
Super cute.
Super delicious!
