bentley "tired eyes" kliewer  came over to our house one morning while anna got her hair done. and then she brought us back lunch from her mom's cafe! mmmm.

bentley picked out these clothes for diah to wear. "what happens at grandma's, stays at grandma's."

after 290 days of reading in the Old Testament (from January 1st ), we finally made it to the New Testament. My quest to read the Bible in a year is almost done!

Noah's Ark. One of his favorite books.

When Bentley was over we were playing with these ducks.
I said, "Where's the mommy duck?" (he points to the big one)
Then I said, "Where are the baby ducks?" (points to the little ones)
Bentley said, "Where's the daddy duck?" ha.

pumpkin muffins

first time in the sink without a bath chair

game day!

examining a mentos wrapper

this was a cute sight to see when i came back from subbing one day

green beans

sometimes we read the book, sometimes i file my nail on it.

dj has been looking for an old-time red lantern. we stumbled upon this one in a tiny (or not so tiny!) ashland thrift/antique store.

i think this elephant was worth like $30 or something at that same store.

which kind of makes me want to sell THIS one that i got from my grandpa and grandma's house.

turns out that "get a free bag of Tootsie Pops if you send in the wrapper with the Native American guy shooting a star" is actually a myth!

Four of my six chapsticks that i own (in various locations--car, coat, nightstand, bathroom, diaper bag, computer desk) are like this one. so low that i have to scrape it out with my fingernail. dumb! buy new ones!

Primavera Pizza=yum!  chicken, green peppers, tomatoes, onions, and spinach with parmesan, garlic and ranch for the sauce. 

we finally got a real Chick-fil-A in Omaha! we made the trip to go eat on the second day that it was open. it was PACKED, but they were super super efficient and organized and it didn't take us long to stand in line, order, and get our food. i was pretty amazed. and it was good!

Subbing for Kerri one day.  She got this note..."Dear Miss Lewis, Thank you for letting me bring my python for Show and Tell."  apparently that happened six weeks prior to the thank you note!
