Circus!

Grandma and Grandpa E. surprised Sweetpea with tickets to the circus this weekend! Unfortunately, Grandpa couldn't come because Great Grandpa E. wasn't feeling well. Thankfully, Great Grandpa E. is doing much better!!

Because we had an extra ticket, though, Sweetpea got to bring her friend Ty! They had so much fun. At first it was a little bit overwhelming because of all the people and things going on so Sweetpea was a little hesitant. Ty wasn't, however, and just went right on over to the action and watched everything! When we got to our seats and the show started, though, both kids were in a trance! Here's a video showing some of the circus. It was a great show!!

And, Sweetpea has since decided she wants to be a clown for halloween...we'll see if that is still the case in a week or so.

First day of school

Sweetpea started at a new school - mine! :) She has really adapted well to the new environment and the new schedule. Here's a picture of us on our first day. While we miss our summer days of sleeping in we are enjoying this fall weather that is starting to come. I am excited about going to the apple orchard and doing all those fall things.
We had some great vacations this summer - to Fun City with Grandma and Grandpa Evans, to Galena with Nana, Phil, Nathan, and Nathan Michael, and to Columbia to see our new nephew who is the sweetest baby ever! Hope everyone else had a great summer and here's to hoping I can keep you better updated!
