Back to SCHOOL Feast

We had our first ever Back To School Feast tonight.  Stephanie Neislon over at NieNie Dialogues has done this for her children for years.  She is an inspiration and I am an avid follower of her blog.  I just love her idea of the "Feast" and thought that this year we would start doing our own dinner to honor the girls going back to school and all that the new year has to offer.  I had so much fun planning the dinner and making the girls their crowns.  Craig is traveling, so sadly he is missing out on the girls first day of school tomorrow AGAIN.  The last two years he was in Afghanistan.  NEXT YEAR he will hopefully be here.

Reese, Claire and Paige with their crowns in front of the dinner table.

Me and my Three Hands Full.

Paige is going to be in the 1st grade.

German bubbly for kids (non alcoholic), schnitzel, spaezle, salat and brotchen were on the menu all in honor of our new home.

Reese goes by Taylor (first name) at school will be a 3rd grader this year... While Claire will be in  a 3's class.

They helped serve

Paige dishing up everyones salat

Claire spilled her bubbly so she ate her fancy dinner in her panties.. LOL.

Thursday Three - Lorelai Claire

Three favorite pictures of Claire taken here in Germany.. was easy to do.  She is a mess.  I love her, she is at such a fun age right now.  Her vocabulary is growing her gross motor skills are crazy, she loves to skip and twist and hop all while walking down the sidewalk.



she is such the ham sometimes..

I know she is thinking "really Mom, I don't want to do this"

quiet... she is totally plotting what she can do with the water and how to throw it at me...

hmmm what 'three' things can I share next Thursday?
