Drawing and a House Decision


Campbell has been into drawing people lately. The library had an activity where you pick your favorite book and then draw a picture about it and then tell what you liked about it. Love how Campbell was studying the cover and copied it.


So fun to watch her develop her drawing skills. 


Blake isn't into art at all. But he has attached himself to Roly, GG's dog from when he was a kid.
House update: We've looked at a ba-zillion houses. We've been going back and forth between buying/building/remodeling. We look online of every new house that comes onto the market.  We go out a few times a week with our realtor. We've met with 3 builders and a contractor for a remodel, made offers on 2 pieces of land that didn't end up working out....drum roll please....and now.....we finally decided on a house. Farther out than we wanted to be, but it's exactly the house we want and it was built by our favorite builder. We got a really good deal. As our realtor said, 'a screaming deal' and the 'best deal he's seen this year'. We close October 15. A house and a car decision within a week - I'm done thinking for a while!

Cute thing Campbell said: She held up a drawing for me to look at and said: "I made this picture for you because you are such a great mom."

Aw, this one made me a little sad...miss those outings to the theatre with the kiddos. Pinkalicious reminded me of our little theatre-goers all dressed up.
