a quick summary of our day, and a picture for Grandma

Look where we went this morning:
 It's really hard to see here because it's so bright in this photo, but the sundial is actually very accurate. The girls stood in the August box, put up their arms and their shadows told us it was noon. Moments later when we got in the car, the clock read 12:04.


 


And look what we made:
 They might not look like much, but they are very cute trees.


 


And for Grandma!! {click to see the boat up close}...
 The Show Dome right now is Tom Sawyer themed. And they had this boat with your namesake! I couldn't believe it when I saw it. I'm not sure if in the book the boat is actually named Carol Ann, and when I tried to look it up this afternoon, I couldn't find the answer. But neat, huh?


 Emma couldn't believe it either. Here she is saying is that really Grandma's boat?

Have a good night. The girls are settling in to start a movie. You know they're tired when it's only 6:25 and they are asking to put on pjs.
