First Day

     For six months I've been chronicling our family's "first days" by snapping pictures of our life all day the first day of each month. This is one of the most fun memes to look back on as it gives so many glimpses back. Much is not shared in pictures today. After I dropped the girls off at their speech class, I went to work. Later tonight I ran by my parents and my mom taught me how to make Mowmow's coconut pie. Precious memories are made and everyday moments happen that I don't share, but I hope you enjoy the ones that I do share.

sweet stray that Powpow is now feeding "I can't let one of God's creatures starve."

Someone please claim this dog.

We went in here for black skirts for orchestra. 

My pink loving girl also left with a pink dress. 

I guess it no longer "goes without saying"
