365 Day Photo Challenge

Days 102-111


She loves to swing!
We had a black and white challenge and a hands challenge.  I combined the two.
What Oksana looked like most of the time after she came home.  The balloons are for her birthday which was a few weeks ago but we celebrated again after she came home.
New restaurant near us called Tom and Chee.  They have every kind of grilled cheese sandwich you can imagine.  This is their grilled cheese salad.  A salad with a grilled cheese sandwich cut up and stuck on top!
I got these at Costco and they were so beautiful!
These are Evan's ribbons from his horseback riding competitions.
A girl and her balloon.  I kid you not, she has carried that thing EVERYWHERE.  We don't let her bring it in the car because it is huge.  Every other time it is in her hands.
Sunshine, flip flops, and a maxi skirt make me a very happy mom!
This might not look like much to you but this child was so apprehensive about driving so it is quite a great picture to me!  When he started driving he refused to go over 20 or leave the neighborhood!  We hired a driving instructor and he is light years from where he was!
My favorite matroyshka.  We got it in Ukraine.  I won't let anyone touch it because that last piece is SOOO tiny.
Youth group.  This is a game called 9 square that the kids love.  The woman in the middle hitting the ball is the wife of one of our pastors.  I'm so thankful for youth leaders because that is NOT something that appeals to me at all!

I adore Anya's smile! Or as I want to call it, "impish grin," LOL! I loved swinging too when I was her age; actually, I still do! I need to get to a playground. Stat. ;)

The black and white guitar picture is way cool! I love guitar music.

Is that little Wilbur the pig tied to the balloon in the next pic? ;)

Grilled cheese salad?! Why oh why don't they have things like this in NJ?! I'm drooling, no lie.

Strawberries! Yum. Next to watermelon they're my favorite fruit EVER.

Tell Evan I think that ribbon collection is AWESOME! Seriously.

That's funny that Oksana took that balloon everywhere, LOL. I've heard of a girl and her dog, but a girl and her balloon? Definitely cute.

Speaking of cute, I love that maxi dress of yours! Great color scheme.

Driving lessons...talk about memories, LOL. I did lessons in high school and got my permit but got too fearful to go further until I was 20 and even then had to go through a bunch more lessons before I felt confident enough. Now I can't imagine not being able to drive!

I love matroyshka! Those are beautiful!

9 square kinda looks like fun...I think. ;)

Sabrina that is Wilbur! He has faithfully kept her balloons from flying away and we tuck him in her crutches when she walks with them :). They even sit with her while she eats which means Wilbur looks a little messy right now!

Driving is so scary! I am 26 and I still can't get the hang of it! Good for Clayton for getting over his fears!
