What else is going on?

I couldn't end my week of DC without this shot. The Space Shuttle. It is huge. I had a great time in DC. Thanks Erica for being a great hostess and tour guide. I hope your feet have forgiven you.

Back at the homestead, Grandma and Grandpa Taller hit the road on Thursday morning. During the week while they were here, we managed not to get any pictures. (Grandpa Taller is usually in charge of the camera). The girls reported that they had a wonderful time. Thank you very much for coming and watching the kids while Jim was at work and on was gone.

Jim got to stay home with the girls on Thursday. While he was home they set up a store.

Here are the two little shoppers choosing their purchases. They came up with the "bookshelves" all themselves.


Evie buys her baby a aquadot cake. Just don't lick it,baby.

Annalise bought dogs, of course!

We also had to work on Evie's homework. Monday begins her "Star of the week" at preschool. We needed to take pictures of things that she likes to do.

Here she is working on her lego contraptions.

And here she is concentrating on the fingerprint book that Grandma Taller brought (thanks!)

As soon as I got home and did the laundry, we packed up and headed to Ohio to give Grandma and Grandpa Seibert their Christmas present....

...a whole weekend of watching the girls!! Just kidding. The did watch the kids a lot when they weren't supervising us on the big project.....

....A newly painted bathroom (Price is Right model not included). Just thought you'd like to see how it turned out, Aunt Becky.
