Day 92: Let's go to the movies! We went to see "Hop" today. And we sat in the first row. The very first row. According to the kids, we had the best seat in the house! It was a cute flick & a great way to spend a rainy Saturday afternoon!
Day 93: We spent this Sunday afternoon baking cookies. Not for any reason. Just because. Because icing cookies is FUN...and it's even more fun when mom stands back and lets the kids have at it! And look at how great they turned out! Unfortunately, they were so delicious they didn't last long...
Day 94: I just had to take a picture of our back door. Can you tell that some very talented artists live here? I smile every time I come home and see these masterpieces!
Day 95: Can it be? Is my baby REALLY going to kindergarten?!? Well, it appears that way since we spent today at kindergarten registration. She did great! She seems very ready for school...we'll just see if mom is ready when the time really comes!
Day 96: Joey belt tested today...he's now an orange belt! He did a great job with his kata. We were all there to see him show his stuff. We're VERY proud of our karate kid!
Day 97: Claire had to bring in her birthday treat to school today, so we decided to make these cute little nests. We used white chocolate chips mixed with peanut butter to coat Chinese noodles and voila-nests! Cadbury eggs complete the look. I wonder if the pre-schoolers will actually eat them.....
Day 98: Getting ready for the BIG day...Claire turns 5 tomorrow, so we need to decorate her cake! Rainbow M&M's and marshmallow clouds...the Paci girls have designed a good one!
Day 99: Today is the big day...Claire is 5 today!!! She awoke to presents before breakfast! What a great way to start your special day!
Day 100: A quick trip to Monkey Joe's for the birthday girl! We figured, why not make it a whole birthday weekend? And a visit to the "new" bounce place in town seemed like a good idea. After all, when you are 5 years and 1 day old, you've got to celebrate with something special!
Day 101: Colors, colors, colors!!! I'm deciding what colors to paint the new office. And since Sherwin Williams is having a 40% off sale this weekend, I need to decide, and I need to decide NOW. I also have to guesstimate how MUCH paint of each color I'll need. Needless to say, I was sitting here quite a while...Claire must have thought we needed to commemorate this moment with a quick picture....
Day 102: Otherwise known as: "The Great Lunch Mix-Up" day. So, here's what happened...I packed both kids lunches, then put the wrong lunch in each backpack. When Emma got to school and discovered the mix-up, she put her teacher on the job of switching them back. This would be easy if the kids were in the same building, but they're not. Emma is in the Elementary building, while Joey is across the parking lot in the Primary building. As it turns out, Emma's teacher contacted the principal who was heading that direction, so he made the swap for us. I'm glad the administrators at our school go above and beyond the call of duty! Get it right next time, Mom!!!!
Day 103: Here we are...another shot of the office. Insulation is up...next step, drywall...
Day 104: Double head-lock! Daddy has been putting in massive hours at the new office, so we're thrilled when he's home in time for a little playing around! 
Day 105: Look who's getting ready to play the piano! Claire isn't quite ready for lessons yet, but she will be soon! She gets a lot of creative practice in for now.
Day 85:
