Back to school open house day

morning play
more play
I made some whole wheat banana muffins to go with Abe’s stew for lunch.
Back to school open house! Abe took the girls to meet their teachers while I took Ammon, Clarissa, and Basil to the splash pad across the street.
The older girls joined us after the open house and the kids played until almost 6pm.
After Abe was done with work we went to Scheel’s to get some camping gear and a fishing pole for Clarissa’s birthday. Clarissa and I stayed in the car with Basil, and Clarissa went totally crazy playing with Basil. She pulled and tugged and fell on him, and he was so, so patient with her.
Some of Clarissa’s playing-with-Basil antics.

Clarissa has been very talkative lately. Here is evidence (I think she says sparkle at least 10 times 🙂 ).
