So big and happy it burst over the edge of the pie plate!

Spell time, flick and swish.
Remember how great the Halloween parties used to be? They are better now, you should have seen the snacks that the kids had....

Olivia's Soccer team

Chris coached both girls' soccer teams this year and they had a lot of fun together.
Olivia loved playing defense and forward.
Chris rallying the team. They only lost one game and tied one, all the rest they won. We are having an ice cream social tonight to celebrate such a victorious season.
