Waving goodbye to David.

On the way to the car, Grace found this giant leaf.

She went on her first ever field trip, where there were other drivers/chaperones -- it wasn't easy for me to see how it would be okay but I didn't let on to Grace. Her class was off to see the Nutcracker!

A quick goodbye.

And then we were off to the post office -- it was not a terribly interesting trip except for the fact that the post office website is full of lies and stamp release schedules are apparently not always what they seem. Ahem.

Triumphant return after her field trip!

Looking out at her beloved teacher, Miss Jamie.

Zero.

Suki always loves it when Grace climbs back with her.

Kate, on the other hand, got a little bored and just wanted to go home.

Playing outside before we left this morning.

Does this shirt look familiar to you?

Here's a hint.

Kate looks at some birds...

Here's another hint.

I think she looks so cute in it! Here's our entry from a day Grace wore this outfit and I am a terrible mother because I have no recollection of Suki ever having it on.

Pausing for a moment in the car.

A dubious looking Suki near the fence.

Done with school! Back at home we had a big reorganizing morning and it didn't really make for any interesting photos. I know what you're thinking: like that's ever stopped me before :)

Sharing the tannenbaum -- there's a tiny train that goes around a track inside.

Definitely NOT touching the tree, no matter what it might look like. I love this sweater Grandma made for her!

In the drop off line.

Back at home we tried to occupy ourselves in one room while we had our carpets cleaned.

Grace looked so happy coming out of school.

Climbing into the back seat.

Looking at her wishing mirror.

Maple leaves!

Sweet, sweet girls.
