So many pictures . . so little time

I haven't uploaded pics from our camera to the PC in a while. I finally did it just now . . all the kids are asleep and I have a moment to myself. Yippee!

So, bear with me but I must share a few.
Here's my girl Anna playing her first soccer game of the season. Doesn't she look 10 feet tall?
They lost this game but won the next. Anna made 2 goals! (she's the dark haired one in the purple, by the way)

Earlier this month, the girls had a pet blessing ceremony at school to celebrate St. Francis of Assisi (sp?). They had Pearl (our white schizo cat) blessed (Lord knows she needs it!) along with Emma's stuffed cat.



Mark carved a pumpkin (which has long since rotted in the near-90 degree South La. heat) after the girls drew a scary face.


And here's just a cute one of John at the soccer game. He looks more and more like a little man every day, instead of my baby!

Last but not least, here's Anna and Patriotic Pearl (cat outfit or 'catfit' courtesy of Maw-Maw Adele!) at the 4-H Pet Show yesterday. Anna won 2 blue ribbons!








It's been a busy few October weeks. They've been good weeks though, with nearly perfect weather and many reasons to 'count my blessings'.
