The Little Game!!

We are a magnet for the small game out in the wild. A duck has taken to our abode. We have named her Florence. She eats the cat food. She loves the water. She comes running all excitedly when we come out. She acts just like a "Florence" should act. We think Spunky had something to do with this.
Last week's game was HUGE!! This week's game was not. However, we were still there with rings on our fingers and bells on our toes and tubas on our shoulders. Here comes the band!
Rozzie danced and helped to increase school spirit.
This week was the annual performance of the Eaglets - the Golden Girls' summer camp! Maddie participated again this year. She likes doing it. Here she is with a friend from church!
Here are the two dancers ready to perform. My camera was on the wrong setting, so the pictures of the dance aren't very good. You are spared!!
I fixed the setting and got a few decent pictures of Morgan out on the field. I didn't label the photo, but she is the short sousaphone!

And with that, we are one month into school. I posted interim grades yesterday so that means that we are roughly half way through the first quarter of the school year. We were really busy this week and had a couple late nights. Everyone is adjusting to new schedules. I think I may spend today (Saturday) in bed, even though I have floors and a bathroom to clean. Oh, and there is laundry to do.

Oh the mundane things of life. Always fun that laundry. Never stops piling up. 'Sup with that?

Looks like a lot of fun on Friday nights!! School starts Monday. HUGS!

We really missed Fleming Island's half time show! The band is so spectacular--and the dancing is so great! Maybe we can hit Fleming Island again next time they play at home!

I like the ducky! Ah football season is upon us here too. Unfortunately the halftime show (which Paul was to take part in as a French Hornist) was canceled on account of rain. I had a feeling they were going to cancel it, so I didn't go. So I didn't miss anything.

So I'll just look at Morgan and Rozzie and Maddie to enjoy some high school football season feeling!

Florence! What a darling new friend to have living in your backyard. My girls would be in absolute heaven if we had a pet duck. However, Lucy would never allow it, and Florence would end like our bunny massacre we had last summer:(

OMGosh, Rozzie and Maddie look so much alike in that picture! Is that even possible?!?

Jen - it is not possible. You are seeing things!!
