Flotillas

The kids enjoyed making boats at the museum on Monday. We tested them out on the museum's lake and they all float!

Noah was excited to find a caterpillar at the museum, which was really a piece of pipe cleaner. I was happy to let him play with the "caterpillar" that he couldn't kill.


Zoe came home from her sleepover very excited about the costume idea that she and Morgan came up with for the Branch Halloween activity. Zoe is going to be Miley Cyrus and Morgan (who is blonde) will be Hannah Montana. Morgan's older sister dressed them all up in her clothes and accessories to find the perfect outfits, which I think is so sweet! I'm excited to see them in costume!

Zoe has had 2 away games the past 2 days and the kids and I have gone to both of them. Matt went to the game today. The kids loved yesterday's game because there was a playground right next to the soccer field. Zoe is improving every game. Her coach sees great potential in her, so he has her trying out different positions and she's playing more than I thought she would. She came so close to scoring a goal today. The goalie caught the ball and then let go of the ball, but then caught it again. So close! Zoe's team has lost most of their games, so it was fun to see them win today. Yay!

Zoe, Emily, and I had a quick stop at home to grab a bite to eat before heading to church for Activity Days. The girls are working on Christmas presents for family members. The girls enjoyed making what they made this evening. I enjoyed helping out and not being in charge. I'll be in charge in December.
