Girls' weekend




-

Each year(or so we try), 10 of my first cousins gather for a long weekend somewhere in the northeast...I have been unable to go the last few years for a variety of reasons, but did this year...it was Cecelia's first...this year we went to the Catskills..it was cold, well past-peak for leaf viewing, but fun...even if the two little ones with us both got sick...


just a few pics...

Cecelia is going to be a ladybug for Halloween and she just loves her costume. She will wear it on every occasion she can. This was one day in our little homeschool. I love this picture so much. And of course I love the little ladybug in it the most!
