Margot had her last game for the fall league yesterday. They played incredibly well against a strong team and ended tied 3-3. It was a great season. They moved up a flight, and started the season with some losses. But they didn’t give up, they
Margot recently decided she wanted to crochet a chicken. She didn’t have a kit or instructions. She just looked at some pictures of chickens online for “inspo” and then made this up in her head then crocheted it. I’m amazed at how she just figures
Who needs to stand in line for the latest trader Joe’s bag drop when you have an artist at home making custom tote bags?
Margot has been drawing friendly monsters, and I’m really impressed. She drew this for Kim for mother’s Day.
Margot loved making this turtle, from a kit she got from her grandparents at Christmas. She named the turtle Aitutaki, after the turtle we saw there on our trip a few weeks ago.
We took the girls for the long promised and long overdue ear piercing, and then for some nice indian food after.
We did Tuesday tacos, and Margot was playing with my phone while we waited. She said she was trying to look mysterious.
It was very wet and rainy, but we had a nice time at the Houston zoo with Dad/Duckie. (My father, girls grandfather)

Margot is very excited to decorate for Christmas. Yesterday she decided to take a plain white ceramic dinosaur and make him into Santasaurus. The wings are so he can go help deliver presents. Santasaurus is now my favorite Christmas decoration
We all went to Catalina so that Hazel could get her scuba certification. Margot and Kim went to the Zipline, and I handed Margot my GoPro and asked her to film. She did an amazing job and produced just about the cutest video you can
I had told Margot we could camp out to see the parade. My friend Joseph had an alternative that would have let us sleep at home tonight, but it wouldn’t be front row and Margot really really wanted to be front row. Plus she’s never
Once upon a time, there was a girl named Piper. Her teacher sent her to Adventureville, where there were a lot of adventures, to study friendship. At that point, she didn’t really care for friendship. Her pet cat told her just try it. So she
Margot had a very specific request for her birthday this year. She wanted an ice pop party at the store, and she wanted to invite her class from school. So instead of the normal parties we’ve done in years past, that’s what we did. I
Hundreds of dollars worth of toys in the house, and Margot has been playing with a box of rocks for a week…. 🙂
