Simone's visit last week

Simone and I went to Brenham last Friday to tour the Blue Bell Creamery there - and Simone got ice cream at the end of the tour. What fun!

On Saturday afternoon, I took Simone and Kira to Market Street and the mall in The Woodlands.

More ice cream!!

Here she is, waiting for the lady to check her in for her flight. Do you think she likes her pink hat? =)

Red Ribbon Week!

This week, Simone has been visiting me during her school's Fall Break. Over the weekend, we drove to Austin to visit Austen. He took the photo below of the two girls when we were at Chili's on Saturday evening.

On Tuesday, we went to Kira's school to have lunch with her. Here's Simone, standing in front of Kira's school.

Today is the last day of Red Ribbon Week at Kira's school. She dressed up for Tuesday (Safari Day), Wednesday (Tie-Dye Day), Thursday (Halloween Day), and today (Crazy Hair Day). See the crazy hair!! Purple and green spray-on color!!

New school year, new choir to perform in!

Last night, the Hildebrandt choir gave their first performance. This was for parents and families, and everyone seemed to enjoy it all.

The choir's schedule of performances starts in November. We are looking forward to more, more, more!

Raining ... we love it!!

Wet streets and fuzzy visibility! Magnificent!!

The gutters are so overrun with rain, they just can't keep up!
