Rachel had fun posing with her own rendition of Monticello on back of the nickel her dad gave her. The house and the grounds were gorgeous

::::::::::::Runnin' Away, Aye!::::::

Yes, we are off again for a few days! We are attending a family reunion. It appears it will be a soggy time, but the kids will have fun with their cousins, aunts and uncles.

::::::::::::Twisted Kids::::::::

During our trip Aaron was searching for a song to listen to on the mp3 player. He found "Alice's Restaurant" by Arlo Guthrie. Michael said that is our Thanksgiving song. Pick something else. The kids all chimed in that they wanted "Alice's Restaurant". Rachel remembered a lot of the words, so she sang along. By the time we got to Monticello, Virginia to visit Thomas Jefferson's home we started calling any time the kids sat together "The Group W bench". They seemed to like that lable. Luckily, they don't identify with any of those on the bench from the song...not even the litterbug!

Oh I do so love your double page layouts. They are fabulous, especially for the gorgeous building.

As for the pic of the kids, I have to laugh. We get the same when we have three kids in the back seat of the car. Oh the fun (NOT!) And if it's not about the pokes and the jabs and the touches, it's "Caaaaaarol, make him stop looking at me" LOL
