A package arrived from my sister, Corinna, today that included among other stuff a new shirt for Henry.  If you are not going to vote for Obama, consider Henry.





Today was also exciting as this evening was Maisie's first volleyball game!  Yes, I am getting Maisie to play volleyball!   I talked her into it by agreeing to be her coach.  The team is so cute . . . they are so little and try so hard.  It is the first time playing the sport for most of them.  I was not able to take photos tonight as I was coaching . . . I will try to multitask better next time . . . and snap some shots!

The other highlight of the day . . . which is pretty much the highlight of everyday around here . . . was checking for eggs.  It is always fun and exciting for the kids, but especially fun to find a green and a blue at the same time.  Cole found them today as usual.  He likes to check just about every hour when he is not at school.  On Sunday Maisie was so excited because SHE found the eggs -- it was the first time someone else didn't beat her to it.  Here is a shot of Cole's little hands holding a green and blue he found together.



I have also been meaning to post some photos of Josh's latest project.  He is building a shed in our side-yard.  It is a little slow going as he is doing it all on his own, but it is looking good!





Cole is a big helper.  See his addition to the shed in the photo below right.



Henry likes to help too.



The last photo I have to post is not from today . . . I am not sure when it was taken . . . sometime in the last week.  When I downloaded the photos I took from the camera to the computer this one came along with the rest.  Josh must have taken it while I was at work.  It just cracked me it.  This is what happens when Henry tries to dress himself:
