Winter smiles!

These girls are so enjoyable every day! It's so fun having daughters, they bring us so much joy! 

They certainly make us laugh on a daily basis, keeps us hopping in keeps the love and snuggling with us each day! 

Snow Days

Due to the severe Indiana weather we've been experiencing this winter we've had seven days so far off of school.  Leave it to the Branham girls to figure out some fun and creative things to do. Create your own beach party, Playing School and of course snuggle time! Mother nature has been in charge and we've been Taking it all in.

California Dreamin'

We had an enjoyable trip to Southern California! Enjoy the sights and weather in Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Long Beach. Had a great time with each other and visiting with friends. Rented a wonderful house on Newport Beach can't wait to visit again soon and take the girls to see California!

Quilting

The girls were so excited for cold snowy day! They had the opportunity to spend the day at Lorene and then go to a quilting. These are special memorable times that they will remember for the rest of their lives! 

Their family has been such a blessing to us through the years with raising her girls. Time to imagine that both of them will be schoolgirls next year.

Back in the Saddle

I am going to start posting again, it has been a busy year, and I have been busy enjoy our family and the joys and events of our days.
So, I will be back up and running again soon!

The Crows will Like Her!

 Tessa won't be able to scare away many crows with this scarecrow outfit!  We had a great time preparing this morning for scarecrow day in kindergarten! She as all about the face painting and the hat!  It is amazing the many uses that there are for lunch bags, who knew that they could be used at faux straw, and not nearly as messy! 

Kindergarten theme days.... good stuff "ing"... 

Fall Crafts

 

It was a crafty night... Grandma Sherry, the girls and I made graham cracker treats for the kindergarten class after the fire station field trip.  It was an assembly line, there might have been a few pretzels and gum drops that did not make it onto the treats.  Tessa was the leader of the charge of creativity, not only with the fire trucks but with the pumpkins as well.  She has a knack for coming up with ideas and being able to imagine what she wants the project to look like. 

 

Tessa had a vision for her pumpkin and she made it happen.  She just needs a little time and she is artistic enough to make it happen.  Joys of fall, joys of family, joys of having days off for fall break! 

Thanks Grandma for letting us make many messes in kitchen, good times had by all!
