Week adventures

 We had such a wonderful time with Grandma Altena.  Unfortunately, she had to fly out Monday morning.  We look forward to seeing her again at Christmas! 

 Kailee decided that she wanted to "look" like her teacher one school day.  She wanted to get dressed up and curl her hair just like Mrs. Bosma.  She came home really bummed that we parted her hair on the wrong side.  Can't say she doesn't ADORE her teacher! 

 This is a little out of focus due to my young photographer, but that's probably better.  Six months along and still feeling good.  Do I really have time to ponder that though? 

 I've been playing piano a little bit more lately, hence the lid is open.  It beckons kids to play quite often then too.

 Taking 3 kids mini-golfing is definitely an adventure!  It only took one hole to realize that a score card wasn't needed, and clubs were optional too.  All three had a great time.  Dan and I were surprised that Kailee was the most excited.  She was thrilled to pass each "level" (hole) and go on to the next one.  (Can you tell she does too many computer/Wii games?) 

 We had a very difficult time getting Dylan off of this game.  He claimed it and was seen pushing his sisters away.  They were not even able to touch the steering wheel.  (You also might notice Flat Stanley by the screen.  He is visiting from Rock Valley, Iowa from cousin Allison Walhof.)   

 The men working on the fence this morning.  This post will never come out again as long as we live here. 

This afternoon we went to a BBQ in Clovis supporting the CA assembly member, Linda Halderman.  Dan had connections through the California Veterinary Medical Association.  It was very well organized.  We had great food, beautiful weather, and activities for the kids.
