St Francis Circus Day 2008

Allie's school had circus day today. Her class had an entire circus performance for the younger kids. They had clowns, lions, pretty ladies. tightwire walkers, cannon ball man, elephans, lion tamers,and even more. It was really cute. They each had a ticket to get into the circus and also had money to buy popcorn, cotton candy and animal cookies. At the end of the circus they all went on a train ride. Father Mike is our priest and he drives the train. (they ride it every monday!) Sorry that the pictures arent in good order but you get the idea!!

Allie and I were cleaning out our office and I found this picture of me when I was a baby. It reminded me of this picture that I took of Norris just a few weeks ago.

New Pictures...

Happy Friday!

TROUBLE!

This is where I have found Norris the past few days! He thinks it is so funny--I am sure because he knows he shouldnt be up there!

A sad day on Laural Court!

We have many memories over the past 2 1/2 years of the tree swing in our back yard. Many children have squealed with joy while flying through the air.....most of the time way to high!!

I think we just wore the poor tree out!! This is what we saw one morning when we came out of our bedroom. Thank goodness it fell during the night and no one was hurt.
