some pictures

We managed to survive our move and here are a few pictures from the last month....

This is Rachel after having gotten "face-painted" by Mariah with a Marker....they had been cololring so nicely while Mike and I chatted in the next room, but Mariah decided that Rachel needed a big butterfuly around her nose and mouth (with antennae above the eyebrows) and a small butterfuly on each cheek....It is rather amusing. Rachel hiding in a box with the open bag of potato chips after a trip to Costco.


The new kitchen cabinets that our landlord paid for and Mike installed....they are SO much nicer than what was in there before!


Rachel putting stickers on the new drawers to cover up the screws. Allison is decorating a piece of styrofoam to be a horse. We added reins later and she and Mariah each galloped around the house for an hour...


The girls latest activity is "ixperiments", as Allison calls them. They like to take cornstarch, water, and various other things and mix them altogether and see what happens....Here Allison was mixing cinnamon and water which she was doing while I helped Mike put in the kitchen cabinets. Later, she grabbed the sour cream and strawberry jam, as well....yummy.
