Gladfest Parade

Natalie's preschool was in the Gladfest parade and it was a blast. We decorated our wagon/float with tons of Sooners gear since it was OU v. Texas day.

Inside the school waiting to go out with everyone.

The Faubian crowd.

Watching all the other groups in the parking lot while we waited for the parade to start.

We brought candy to throw out to the crowd, but a few of the suckers didn't make it out of the wagon.

The boys were really happy about the tractors right behind us.

After we were done marching, we got to watch the rest of the parade. Nice of them to put the preschoolers at the front of the parade.

This is the girls passing out candy.

Mom with my kiddos.

Watching the marching band....Natalie's favorite.

More of the clapping along with band.

Still more of the beat.

Carnival rides.

Flying high with the elephants.

Puppies for sale on the walk back to the car.

Hard to resist, but we managed to leave them all there.

More Mini Doctor Pics

I just can't resist these.

Built-In Playmate

Watching these two interact is intriguing for this Mama. They played outside together for at least an hour the other day while I worked inside. So nice.

GRAN

Seriously Granny, 7 days is not enough.

Fine Artist

Natalie's teacher, Mrs. Stock drew the outline. The excellent paint work was all Natty Gee.

Seriously, this is amazing! :)

If you want to see just how proud you can get of something you had nothing to do with, just have a baby, sit back and watch. I really think you have no idea until it happens to you. How can I be SO proud of this big red leaf and that sweet little girl?

A Friendly Visitor

Our friends, Caroline Brixey and Mrs. Alyse came to visit us this past week. They were here for less than 24 hours, but it was wonderful to see them.

Sutton and Caroline watching Baby Signing Time together.

Seeing how versatile Natalie's chair can be.

We already miss you all, again...
