Bobbing for apples. Anelyse picked this game and made sure that her dad went first so he didn't get anyone elses germs.
Go Dad go!
He made it look so easy.
This was Anelyse's dinner made into art. A picture of her dad. She used the meat for a mustache. What a goofball. 
Outfit for the first day of school.
Waiting for the bus.
Getting off the bus - already hand in hand with her best friend Isabella.
Meeting the teacher Mrs. McCoy. She is a great teacher!
She came home all smiles after the first day.
Just another school day. She wanted me to take a picture of her hair. She likes it done this way.
Playing in the sand at the river.
Anelyse in her own little world.
Eating the sand at the river.
What a cute little boy!
Raiden.
Raiden, Hadley, and Helam.
Ride'm Cowboy! Go Mandy go! 
The whole crew. What a motley bunch. 
Going on a froggy hunt. They caught more than 20 frogs before we left. 
Oh! how sweet, looking for frogs with dad 'cause the girls left him.
This is the Cawdad the girls caught - he had clams stuck to two of his legs and did't seem to be in much of a hurry to get away. 
The girls with thier crawdad.
Everyone else eating Pizza........
Even Helam seamed to be enjoying the party........
But not Anelyse.
Kimiko and Anelyse eating B-day cupcakes. 
I think she only ate the frosting and gave the rest to me. It works out really well for both of us because we each get the part we like the best. YUM!
After all the kids went home we opened more presents from mom/dad, Nana, and Baba.
"Oh Cool! My own tool purse, just what I always wanted!
She has put the tools to good use helping dad on various projects, and mom has had to borrow them on occasion.
Baba got Anelyse a wonderful wagon to pull behind her tricycle, unfortunately my camera died and the trike broke the next day. Since I am not that good at welding I tried to get uncle Carson to fix it. After waiting several weeks I gave up and did it myself. It took several attempts and the end result was a really ugly weld, but so far so good. So, consequently these pics were taken later (I think earlier in Sept.) as she was carting our harvest from the garden to the house.
What a good gardener Anelyse is. Potatoes, Carrots, Corn, Squash, etc...
What do you think he is thinking? I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
It is hard to see with the pic this small but he has a VERY MISCHIEVOUS look on his face.
