First Day of School

In September Princess #1 started 1st grade and Princess #2 started preschool



New House= New Chores

School is starting and we are in a new house so I want to revamp the chores for the girls...

I started a "responsibilites" check list for the girls... this means these are things that they are need to do everyday without any compensation.  I also started a chores chart that are specific tasks they receive a quarter for if done on time and with a good attitude.  (if I figure out how to add a document I will add them later) but here are the girls folding their laundry (5yrs and 4yrs)



End of The Summer Treat

Prince Charming and I figured that after all the craziness from the summer the girls needed a little treat.  So we took them to a local carnival for some fun one day...





Visit from The Marine and the Decorator


After all the dust settled from our moved we enjoyed a 2 week visit from Prince Charming's brother, The Marine and his family. Obviously the Marine is in the millitary and they are currently stationed in the frozen tundra of CANADA. The trip was a "redesigned" trip because Prince Charming's parents were supposed to travel to Canada to see the Marine's family but Prince Charming's mom ended up being hospitalized (severe food posioning and gall bladder surgery) so the airlines was able to put the money towards the Marine's coming here instead, which meant we got to enjoy them as well.
