to our favorite store....
........"Rubbermaid in the Basement."
There we find clothes that bring back memories of when Big Sister wore them.....
and clothes for a fall Sunday afternoon......
Buttercup is having fun seeing the cute outfits she used to wear....now these clothes will be able to dress new memories!!! Having a sister is so much fun!
Blessings on your Sunday!!

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo -no words- capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, visit Soulemama and leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.
On Sunday, we found out we won the 3rd place prize for a drawing our church had at the week-end Fall Festival..........what did we win?
A basket with 10 pounds of chocolate in it!!
Not only did we celebrate a belated birthday...
but we celebrated an early birthday, too.
what was inside.
She was delighted with her new, pink stuffed bunny......
and looked bright and fun in her new outfit!!
One night, we had a Yahtzee show-down.....a night that went by all too fast......as they all tend to do when were are spending time with those that are dear to us.
Grandpa and Grandma left for home yesterday......Dad gave them last minute directions ......which must have been pretty good because they called last night and they made it home safely.
It's always fun to try out new parks....
check out new scenery....
and see if the fish are biting.
Coco is getting more steady,
more consistent,
more sure-footed....
and more excited about walking!!
Grandma H. brought along a birthday cake for Buttercup to celebrate being 7.......
....receiving a shiny, new, pink bike for a gift was perfect as her old one was just getting too small.
So, today we set out on a walk/ride to try it out.....
......she rode around the neighborhood and we checked out all the leaf piles!!!
And, having a gorgeous, November day to ride that bike.....
Buttercup discovered she had a passion for soccer.
She loves to run and I swear I could hear her singing, "Put me in coach, I'm ready to play..."
This is another boy who loves to run.....this sport is actually his 2nd choice.
Picnics were a favorite way to pass time while watching games.
Rocky was very sad to see his season end. If it were up to him, there would be year round football.
Ky, on the other hand, was ready to move on to the next sport........even as the coach gave the final talk, visions of basketballs were dancing through his head.
We've had two back to back seasons of outside sports. We've passed the time playing.....
at many parks.....
and exploring new areas. It was always fun to see what nature had for us to find.....
and to see what Mother Nature had to bestow on us for each sporting event. All in all, most games were pretty enjoyable weatherwise...........but, I admit, I will be the first one to say......
P.S. Sunday NFL scores were never too far away........no matter where we were........Dad's phone always came in handy.
