THANKS, AUNT MUH!

Although the weather is supposedly changing around here, today was very hot and humid…a great day for the girls to wear these cute dresses made by my wonderful Aunt Muh (This is what DD calls her.) This may be the last time they get to wear them this year, so I wanted to post a few pictures to show them off. I truly believe that if Aunt Muh can’t make it; it CAN’T BE MADE. She’s amazing!

(The ankle bracelets were DD’s idea.)
Great dresses for acting goofy!!!!

After the pictures we went to Mardel’s to buy a copy of The Pumpkin Patch Parable by Liz Curtis Higgs

This is a wonderful book recommended by Adele at A Mei Mei for Mallory http://www.doublehappinessinrichton.blogspot.com/ I’m really glad I found it since we are planning to go to the pumpkin patch tomorrow with our play group. The book takes the focus off the jack-o-lanterns associated with Halloween; instead it puts the focus on glorifying God by letting him shine in our lives.
They are very active girls, but they do sleep occasionally!

Doodlebug is beginning to say a few words in English. Of course some words and phrases are essential to know. She learned this essential one tonight while watching television with Daddy Darling:
TOUCHDOWN DALLAS!
(She didn’t get to say it much in tonight's game, but you just never know when it might come in handy.)

Aunt Muh is AMAZING, and blessed to be able to sew like that. A gene that was NOT passed on to me. The Darling girls are as cute as can be.

We love The Pumpkin Patch Parable. I need to buy more of her books.

I hope you stayed up for the end of the game, it was worth being so tired today. Nothing like pulling off a victory in the last 2 seconds of the game.

We are off to get Lil Miss Firecracker's flu shot today. One of my friends is a pediatric nurse and emailed a bunch of us she is seeing positive flu tests in her office.

Stay well and enjoy the pumpkin patch!

Thanks for posting the pictures. The girls are adorable , as usual. It is so nice to have some little ones to sew for. You should see the costume for Logan. He is a dinosaur. I guess I had better get busy on a red flannel gown for Doodlebug. The other girls all recieved one for Christmas. Keep up the good work. Love you all!, Aunt Muh
