Riley and Millie

 This girl loves her dog.  And Millie tolerates it pretty well.  She loves to ride on the golfcart with Riley.  She's brave!

Fall, Yard Sales and Dirty Faces

 Riley found this hat at our church yard sale.  I thought she looked like the "man in the yellow hat" from Curious George.  Riley grew some pumkins this summer and we had an abundance so we've been "decorating" for fall.  She has enjoyed putting them out.  And all that hard work tends to leave her filthy from head to toe.

Guest Photographer

Riley grabbed my camera when we went to watch some girls from the church play volleyball.  She and her friend Aiden took turns taking pictures.  I was pretty impressed at how they turned out.

First Day of Kindergarten

 We had a very excited girl to start kindergarten this year.  She has enjoyed school and has been happy about going for the past two weeks.  She does NOT love riding the bus home a couple of days a week but I'm not sure I ever loved it either.  I hope she has a great year.

Family Visit

 Most of my family was able to make it in for a long weekend visit again this summer.  We made it to Patti's and Venture River and enjoyed some time hanging out in the back yard.  The kiddos had the most fun playing together.

At Travis and Megan's Wedding

Tim and I decided she was looking way too grown up at his nephew's wedding this weekend.

Seed Saving

Riley and I are trying our hand at saving seeds for next year. She was great help in cleaning out the squash seeds. Just hope this works!
