Lately Meg's outfits have been cracking me up. We have been having a lot of what I like to call, "The Punky Bruster Look" going on. Don't you love the black socks!
Socks are a big deal for Meg. In the shot below she has on red froggy socks.
Meg loves it when I display her art work. I decided to make this door her art space.
Meg and I noticed that even our fruit and veggies look like fall.
On Sat. we saw cows being tranported down a highway. We thought this was pretty cool.

Last Week
Meg had her first dance class last week. She loved it! It is just Meg and this other little girl in the class.
We like to cook while Owen is at school. Last week we made our first batch of peanut butter cookies!
Meg loves art and painting. She spends alot of time making masterpieces!
We've been spending alot of time at the soccer field. Owen has practice 3 times a week. Here he is at his first game.
Meg and I headed out early Sat. morning to a children's flee market. We found all these goodies for a grand total of $10.00
A weekend is never complete without some Marvin time. So we met Marvin at the park so the boys could play. 200+ plastic soldiers plus a sand pit = 4 hours of fun.
That is a little snap shot of our week.

Friends
Yesterday, Marvin's family picked up Owen and took him to a theme park for the day. It was Marvin's 8th birthday and he wanted to spend his day with Owen. These boys met about 1/2 way through their 1st grade year. Best friends are priceless and I am so thankful that Owen has experienced this at such a young age. We are trying not to think about the fact that they will be moving soon. We have a few more months together and we are going to make the most of them. I put together this little slide show as part of Marvin's gift. Owen was so proud to give it to him!

Ordinary Days
We Love this bean salsa!
1 can of black beans
1 can of shoepeg corn
1 red pepper
1 purple onion
2 jalapeno peppers
juice of 1 lime
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
2 garlic cloves
Salt and pepper
Reber's secret ingredient.....a squeeze of honey:)
Chop onion and pepper finely and eat with pita chips!
Owen's first day of soccer practice
When I picked up Owen from school yesterday he was so distraught. His teacher had asked him to stop tapping his pencil in front of the whole class. I told him not to worry about it. I thought it was so cute when he said, "Mom, drumming is just in me." You will see from the video below that he was born with a tap in his toe!

Family Reunion
We headed to Switzerland on Sunday to attend a family reunion. Pascal had not seen some of his family for 20 years!
Pascal and his mom
The reunion was at Pascal's cousin's farm. Meg was thrilled they had horses!
Lots of jumping with cousins!
Pascal's brother and his wife Cindy
At the end of the table are Pascal's moms 3 sisters
Owen and his cousins
Martine's house/Farm
It was a great day. I had never met some of his family so it was a real treat. I did a lot of smiling. Somebody needs to learn French!
