The 5th of may

Our little Liv wore every dress up outfit we own today....

And someone stole her gnome shoe...







Ira made a list of fiesta "to-do"s
And we headed for a walk and whole foods....



Walk to Starbucks...







Ira's "freak out" face over her "so loose it should have fallen out a week ago but she wont wiggle it" tooth...



The list-



Thats: Food, music, tables, plates, banner, balloons, soda.

She also made puppets...







Then we enjoyed some "Mexico music" on the world music channel- ate quesadillas and tacos and danced.

Egypt...

Ira wrote a book today... She even threaded the side herself.
















I absolutely LOVE it.

Another rainy day...

We had to go out for some puddle jumps...




































Later, Ira wanted to do math...


















Emers decided the wood was more fun to draw on than the white board...



























Liv coloring shapes...





Ira gave herself a tattoo.

SUN!

It's the equivalent of the ice cream truck. We see it and run as fast a we can into it.

We miss home.

Last night we were all in the office looking at old pictures. Pictures of a year ago when Emers was born, of 2.5 years ahi when liv was born.

Ira said, "I really miss home. I had forgotten it. But now I see it and I really really miss it"

That was a hard moment for all of us.

So when the sun came out today, we went for it.


Trying to enjoy the beauty of falling leaves. Something that we didn't get a whole lot of in Arizona.





Bright red leaves....


Collecting fallen seed pods/caps for fairy hats.


One duck, two duck....


Then they spot you...an start flying in.








Once home Ira set up a cafe as we were all starving.
