Archaeological Dig at the Lake Jackson History Museum

Yesterday Papa took the girls to the local history museum for an archaeological dig and activities where they learned about some of the local native culture.  

Maeby got to dig for artifacts:

Got her face painted:

And got to decorate pottery like the Native Americans did:

 Maeby was very proud of a hard day's work and loves to learn about new people, cultures and places.  It was a memorable time spent with her Papa.

Georgie was there, but fell asleep half way through it all in her stroller.

Maeby's picture was taken for the newspaper but we haven't seen the article yet. Will post when we do.

Gett'n Fancy

Thanks to some major new additions to our dress up wardrobe graciously donated by our cousin Ilse Eskelsen, dressing up fancy for fancy occasions around the house is a new favored past time.

Here are some snapshots from our recent photo shoots.

Georgie LOVES LOVES LOVES this tutu and will hardly let us take it off of her.  She has worn it three days in a row and is extra careful not to get anything on it.  She also has to make sure she has the perfect shoes on when we leave the house.

Airplane!

After much deliberation it was decided that the large box we'd received from the UPS delivery person should become a one-of-a-kind airplane!  

Play'n Ponyville Style

Nothing like a morning jaunt of playing My Little Ponies with the girls!

Maeby is ALWAYS Rarity

Jeremy is Apple Jack

Georgie is Apple Bloom

Jenn is Twilight Sparkle

Library Puppet Show

Our library has a puppet theater that Maeby LOVES. Every time we go to the library she puts on a puppet show that starts oddly similar to that of the Muppet Show, complete with special guest and songs. Today was a short version (she was a little shy about being on camera).
