fun, fun , fun

Though our internet connection is still slow, I thought some pictures and an update were due. Here's the latest on the fun-front.
play day with the Loeffelholz pair
running in the backyard: Piper (our dog), Kara, Sadie, Eli and Nate
watching Elmo and his ducks on Daddy's iPhone

a (somewhat) impromptu visit from the Hagers

Sadie, with Nicole & little Georgia Hanvey ("GiGi" as Sadie calls her)

Jeremy, Sadie's new favorite person...REALLY
(She followed him around and wanted him to read her books)

more backyard explorations

Sadie kept saying "Out! Out!"
wanting to explore the other side of our fence

our newest obsession: coloring
still coloring...
