Big Week of Firsts

Caroline had a visit from the Tooth Fairy Sunday night.

Today was Caroline's first day of school.

Getting on the bus for the first time.

And there's still more

First we expanded the width of the front steps.

Had a visit from two of my cousins and their kids. Fun, but too short a time together.

Painted alcove area with the new color and tried out the future new front door.

Most of the font painted. Caroline helped paint the first railing. Still haven't changed front door.

This is what the front of the house will eventually look like. I'm still a bit rough around the edges with the program I used to do this.

What have I been up to...

I figure I'll let the pictures tell the story.

The town pond was reopened this year and I assisted with the swimming program.

Went to GA to hang with my Mom and Brother.

Took my Aunt (whom I hadn't seen in about 30 years) to see a nature show. Caroline was enthralled as usual, Aunt Janie...not so much.

This one was displaying for another of it's buddies.

Tried my damnedest to capture the one adult male that frequented the feeder, but only captured what I think is a young male we named Red Spot. The other had some sort of radar and flew away whenever I had my camera.

Caroline was CRAZY for the gian slide

She only rode this one because it was within view of the HHS booth I had to man.
