Start of the Obstacle Course

This was Sophie's favorite activity.
She said she felt just like a Ninja Warrior.
(If you haven't seen that show - you should watch it - the girls love it!)

Dress Up Week at Durbin Elementary

We started off with Career Day. They decided they wanted to be doctors. Thanks to Maw we had hats, masks, and gloves. All Mommy did was cut off some old scrub pants and they were all ready!

Tuesday was Inside out Day. Mommy forgot to take pictures.

Wednesday was Camouflage Day. If you look real close you can see Sophie.

Thursday was Red White and Blue Day. Again we were running late and Mommy forgot to take pictures.

But Friday was Superhero day. The girls decided on Supergirl. Mommy did the best she could with one night's notice.

Super Strong

Super Sweet

Super Girls

Opening Day - Bounce House

The only picture I have from opening day of Softball. My camera crapped out on me. But at least its a cute one. Lola, Sophie and Natalie in the Bounce House.

Easter

Sophie wrote and illustrated a book about our Easter adventure. We had Easter at the hospital so Maw could be with us. It would not have been fun without her. The hospital had a nice courtyard for hunting eggs and we had a great picnic.

Aren't they sweet!

Here is the secret hiding spot for the club Sophie talks about in her story. For a big group of girls they all get along so well!
