Meg and Owen love to play with the neighborhood kids. Here they are on a typical Saturday.
 
I was talking with one of the other moms and we love how they are so creative.   They all get their umbrellas and make forts.
Here is one of their finished forts.  They love using stuff people put out by the recycling bins, they are most resourceful!
 
On Friday and Saturday they played from morning until night and then they organized a light show.  Everyone brought out flashlights and anything that glowed.  They had a glorious time!  We are super sad because two of the girls moved yesterday.  Meg and Owen are very bummed.
 
 
We were out shopping this weekend and Meg was taken with the top below.  It just cracked Pascal and I up.  They had the same exact outfit in purple (Pascal and I liked it better).  We kept saying things like, "Oh, the purple is so pretty, and oooohhh the purple really looks good on you."  But her final assessment was, "No I'm sticking with this one, it is me." So the yellow, brown, pink and greenish combo it was!  I tried to tone it down a bit with some brown leggings but I have to say I just love how Meg knows what she wants and no matter what other people have to say she sticks with what SHE likes. 
I think there may be some learning lessons in this for me!
 
Meg has been bringing home some of her art projects from school.  I just love art at this age. 
 
I love getting hand prints!  This is a keeper!
I wasn't quite sure what this one was....I thought perhaps they are starting Halloween stuff early.  When I asked her, "who is this?"  She said, "Oh, that is a boy who is really bad."
 
Then the light bulb went off and I said, "Ohhhh I bet you read No, David!. "  and she said, "yea!"
