Fancy Lucy

Lucy loves Fancy Nancy. Lucy likes to use the "fancy words" that Fancy Nancy uses. For instance, Lucy will say to me, "I want to dine alfresco tonight." She also loves using the french words that Fancy Nancy uses, "bon-jour and papillion." Lucy is always cracking us up with her love of Fancy Nancy.

My dear friend and neighbor, Xan was shopping on-line a few weeks ago and came across some Fancy Nancy pajamas and she just had to buy them for Lucy. Xan was so excited to give the P.J's to Lucy, she couldn't even wait until Lucy's birthday next month.

Thank you Ms Xan!!! We love our new P.J.'s!!!

Moon Festival

We celebrated Moon Festival last night. The kids have been looking forward to it for weeks. I had plans to order Chinese take-out and afterwards drive to a local park to watch the moon rise.

For weeks, we have had unseasonably hot weather, I would even say an Indian Summer. It's been super dry and no rain for weeks. Well, yesterday afternoon the clouds rolled in and we got rain. I knew there was no way we would be able to see the moon through the cloud cover. I desperately wanted to get a photo like this....

We did enjoy our Chinese take-out and our dessert. Chinese tradition is to have mooncakes. Mooncakes are dense cakes made with lotus or red bean curd....let's just say it's an acquired taste. I had the idea to have moonpies instead. I knew the kids would love them, and they did.

Yummy!!!

Happy Moon Festival!!! Maybe, next year I will get my beautiful moon photo.

Wordless Wednesday

My Choir Boy???

Here's the conversation I had with Jack tonight while we were sitting in the Chic fil A drive thru.

Jack, "I wish I had joined the school choir."

Me, "I didn't realize you wanted to sing in the choir."

Jack, "Well, I don't really....I just want to join because ALL the hot girls are in choir."

Oh, Lord....help me!!!

I can't handle the cuteness...

can you???
