Halloween 2012

Mario and the Pirate:

Got personality?
She really got into the spirit:

These 11 ambushed every house.

Saturday morning soccer game

This morning:

Number 8, dark green shirt, Green Monsters Team : Olivia 

All of the girls have really improved this year and it's finally fun to watch.  Last year it was: "there's a LOT of running."  "I'm too tired."  "I'm hot."  And let's not forget the ones that took breaks by sitting on the ball!  But that was LAST year.  This year they are really playing.

Banner for Olivia

Yesterday I made a new banner for Olivia's room.  It was very easy and no sew, using fabric scraps and twine.

In this photo you can see another banner (triangles) that I made for her a while ago.  Next month I will be selling triangle banners at a craft fair at Harvard Law School.  Who knew Harvard Law students were crafty?  How much you want to bet those law students who create crafts to sell will not be practicing law in their future?  or at least practice pro-bono.  

Coffee with friends

Some mornings are for spending with friends at Panera...

Olivia's 7th Birthday Party

One of life's best inventions ever:  Bounce house.

These mustaches were very easy to make.  I used this tutorial from
simplymodernmoma.

The gumball machine was another HUGE hit.

She had the best time:  the singing was the most off-key we've heard in a long time.  (not one future singer in the entire bunch).
