Family pictures October 2010

Hope you like our new banner!  It's about time, I know...These are the sneak peeks from our family photo shoot!  Sidney is nearly 4, India 10 and Max not far from 7!  My friend Lara Douglas is awesome!  Here's how to find her.

India is in ANNIE through Community Theater of Howell!

India is in the play Annie with the Community Theater of Howell. She is in the youth chorus, so she is in 3 scenes and sings and dances in two songs. She has two lines. She loves it SO much! Please don’t feel obligated to come, but if you would like to, the show is going to be fabulous! Tickets are available now, and we get a discount of $2 off each ticket if we buy them beforehand. Our whole family is going to opening night November 12th, so far, and we plan to usher a few of the other shows. Tickets are pricey, $16 for adults, $14 for Seniors 60 and over and students/children. You can buy tickets online here starting 10/15, but there is a fee. I can take cash or checks made payable to CTH. You can use a credit card for 50 cents more per ticket, I believe. Here are the dates the shows are, basically two weekends, one show Friday, two Saturday and one Sunday, each weekend. We will wait to see when people are coming to see if we will attend at that time too, but probably our whole family will only be there Friday, November 12th. Tickets are also available at the door (for $2 more). Seats are assigned. You buy tickets for a seat in a row in the theater. There really aren’t bad seats anywhere. Let me know where you would prefer (middle, aisle, etc.?) and what day, and I can try and get you what you would like.

Then we'll start for home, stopping somewhere, but leaving it open where. :) Can't wait! Have a great 4th family and friends! 

More Balloonfest

The night after we went to Balloonfest, we had the balloons come to us.  What a treat to watch them all at home.  We saw two land and get all put away too.  Once when I was 9 or 10, I got to help pull a balloon down, and I never forgot it!  What a neat year for our family and the balloons!

Potter Park Zoo with Max

Sidney and I had a great time with Max's Kindergarten class at Potter Park Zoo a few weeks ago.  Do you see all the birds and lions in our pictures?!

Here are a few pictures.  Our friends are Philip, his mom Peng Hampton and Aidan. 

Max's ending report card was excellent, and he is now a 1st grader!

The haps for India

INDIA GOT ALL A'S ON HER REPORT CARD!  WE ARE SO PROUD OF HER!
These are India and some of her friends at her 3rd grade luau.

And her with her Brownie troop for their bridging ceremony.

Our garden update

Look our first harvest!  Radishes.  It's too bad we don't really like radishes because they're huge!  I only planted 5 plants.  :)  Does anyone want them?  Everything else is getting bigger and bigger and bigger (as Sidney would say).  Our pumpkins are taking over our deck!  These pictures were taken 6/20, and it's amazing the growth in 9 days!  Michigan is so lush right now because we've had so much rain.  We are so blessed.  Our whole family loves going to look and see how much our garden is growing.
