preschool artwork

some recent artwork from our little preschool scholar . . . a firetruck, mosaic candy corn, a fish tank, and a spider.  (i know the artwork won't hold up and last forever, so i'm trying to be diligent about taking pictures of all of it so we have the memories!)

love, laurie

lots of shows

lots of shows recently with my little helper!

preschool snapshots

a few snapshots of this cutie at preschool recently . . . making a stained-glass looking leaf craft with tissue paper, raking leaves on the playground, reading a book with his friend helen, and coloring thank you hearts for veteran's day.

king of the theatre

this guy always has the best seat in the house for mama's shows at the theatre.  he is the best spot light operator too!

love, laurie

just like mama

someone stole my vest and had to wear it to look just like mama.  he even got his toy cell phone and put it in the vest pocket just like me.

love, laurie

see you next season, lakeland and roba's!

lakeland and roba's have officially closed for the season.  we had to take a trip to both locations on november 2 since it was their last day.  we started off at lakeland to ride all of noah's favorite rides and then pick some last apples.  after, we headed over to roba's to say goodbye. 

we're looking forward to the 2026 season!

love, laurie
