"I" is for igloo

When Shyanne comes home from pre-school she always has a paper w/ her of an activity they did or letter they are learning. Monday was no different and just to make sure she really pays attention (I'm sure you know the attention span of a 3 yr. old) I ask her a few questions about her day. The conversation went like this... Me: "What is this new letter you're learning in class"? S: "It's the letter I". Me: "Oh what's this a picture of"? S: "An igloo"! S: "Mom do you know where igloos are found"? Me: I didn't really want to go into a long explanation about the North Pole which would of course lead to Santa, then Christmas, etc. So I said "There are some in Alaska". Which I believe there are. Shyanne's response "No mom igloos are up at the North Pole"!

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-BOO


This year Shyanne reprised her role as Cinderella. She could hardly wait for Halloween to come so she could go trick-or-treating! We went around our block and the next and by the time we came home she was tired, but not too tired to eat candy :)

Pumpkin Patch


Shyanne petting the cow. Don't worry about the sign they didn't bite :)


Petting the horse again.


I thought this one was a weird animal to have on a farm, but there it is an ostrich! Oh and please excuse the dirt or bug on the lense in this picture.


The kids got to pick some veggies and the parents got to take some home too!


Shyanne and her buddy Dylan. This is the boy who has a crush on her :)

So True




Your Hair Should Be Brown



You are an intelligent, well respected person.

You are very confident. You take yourself seriously, and other people take you seriously too.



You are a good leader, and you can be trusted with someone's life.

You motivate people well, and you command respect easily.



You are competent, successful, and organized. You can't stand chaos.

Some people mistake you for being cold, calculating, or elitist.

THIS IS PRETTY COOL



Sorry if this video is a little grainy, but hopefully you get the idea. We saw this grass on one of our stops and it literally closes up when you touch it- check it out. Shyanne loved this and hey who am I kidding so did Nathan and I. We did this for about 15-20 min. I know, I know we're easily amused :)

Day at the beach


Shyanne being silly

Being silly again

We had so much fun this day! We went to the beach with my BIL's, SIL, my niece and 2 nephews. The waves were a lot bigger and harder today so Shyanne just stayed on the beach and played w/ her little cousin who's around her age. She found this swim mask in their bucket of sand toys and asked me to put it on. As you can see she kept it on the whole time and had the cute little imprint of the mask on her face after we took it off :)
