Door County

We decided to take a little trip up to Door County, WI for a few days before school started. Door County is the peninsula in WI, that sticks out into Lake Michigan. We had a good time there and everyone's favorite part was the lighthouses. We got to walk up the spiral staircase to the top to look at the view. Kendra was sad that she was too short to go to the top, but she was happy that she got to choose something from the suvineer shop (she chose a bag of rocks, just like Tanner and Kara). We also had fun in the cold water of Lake Michigan and on the sandy beach there.






On our way up to Door County we stopped in Green Bay and went to Lambeau Field (Home of the Packers for all of you not from WI).

Happy Birthday Kendra!

Kendra was invited to lunch at her adopted grandparents home. Their grand kids were there visiting so it was a party. It was funny to watch her without Tanner and Kara there. She was very shy.

Kendra loved these dolls, she played with them all day!
Kendra wanted a Caillou birthday cake, she really loves that annoying show.

Kara's Fashion Statement

Lately the kids have been getting ready for school so well. They have been getting up and making their beds and getting dressed complete with their snow pants, coat and boots all before I make it downstairs.
This particular day I was so proud of Kara for moving so fast and being all the way ready with her snow gear on. I went to the school after lunch to help out in Tanner's classroom and saw Kara standing there in the hall. I couldn't believe what she was wearing! She had Kendra's pants on, they look like carpi's, but hello, it is still winter here. I asked her if she couldn't find her own pants and she said that she just wanted to wear Kendra's. I now know that I should check them from head to toe before they leave...you never know what's under all the snow gear.
