a day worth remembering


what a fantastic evening at the park!

even though these kids know how to argue and have their feelings hurt, they still are the greatest of friends. all i had to say was that i wanted to get a picture of them together, and this is what they did:





(me and sophie's shadow)

this could be my favorite photo of the evening.
sophie and charlie were both so tired of walking all over the park and when i picked charlie up, ellie ran right over and grabbed soph's hand and it made sophie so happy she started to clap...with ellie's hand in hers. they walked all the way to the car and ellie kept saying things like "you're doin' it soph! i'm so proud for you!".


our first launch could not have been calculated any more precisely.
chris, being the rocketeer that he is, was able to launch this rocket 200-300 feet and then catch it without even standing up!
