Des Moines Half Marathon

We all finished the Des Moines Half Marathon. GO TEAM BROWN!!!!!

I haven't forgotten!!!

I really haven't forgotten about posting pictures. It is just easy to get wrapped up in daily life and let some things slip through the cracks.

Maggie likes to help me put away groceries. She empties bags onto the counter for me.

The girls love playing Lion King with their animals

They also like to help Daddy in the garage

It has been raining most of the morning. Silly Sycamore is starting to change colors. We bought some sheer curtains today at Target. Hopefully we will get them hung this afternoon. The fall afternoon sun really bakes us in the livingroom, so hopefully they will help.

First day of Preschool

GIANT BACKPACK

Lucy loves the fountain in front.

I'm ready.

So excited!

I Like To Ride My Bicycle

Lucy got a new bike this week.

She practiced on it inside before going on her first big adventure to the park.

She says she is ready to ride on the trail all by herself.

Maggie inherited the trike.

It's all fun and games until someone gets a timeout

The girls love playing in the packing paper from Jon's car parts.

So much fun!!!!
