Hauling the giant bag of "cop corn"
Playing with Madelyne in the sandbox.
Showing off her "country girl" side... She danced (walked on and crawled )up and down those hay bales forever!
Checking out the apple she's about to pick!
Taking it all in
With her apple on the tractor ride back!
Her picture of Johnny Appleseed she colored at school (and finished at Mimi's house) I think that's better coloring than half the kids in my kindergarten class and I'm not joking!
Apple Tree Picture, good job stayin in the lines with your dobbers Lulu!

Jerry and I both had the opportunity to attend Delaney's first field trip with her preschool class. We went to Eckerts on a very hot day for late September! It didn't matter to Delaney... she had a great time picking and eating apples and playing with her friends! I made her outfit especially for her field trip and had so much fun putting it together... and she loved showing it off! We had a lot of fun but we were worn out by noon! I'm so glad we got to go on her field trip with her! They finished up their apple theme on Thursday and she came home talking all about Johnny Appleseed! It's so fun to hear all about her special days at preschool. I'm so happy she is enjoying it so much! Next Tuesday she is the helper... so she gets to bring show and tell... she has decided to bring her Dorothy Barbie Doll. She wants to show the kids how Dorothy sings when you push the button. I have no doubt she'll tell them much much more as well!

Delaney had a big day September 14th! She attended her first day of preschool and started dance class with her friend Maya. In this dance class she gets to do tap and ballet and they will do a recital in the spring. Delaney is very into tap dancing (because Annie tap dances in the movie at the end!) She loved going shopping for new leotards! Mimi took Delaney shopping for her dance shoes and although she was uncooperative at the time.. you'd never know it now.. she loves putting those shoes on and dancing around the house! Last spring in dance class Delaney didn't participate much and waited until she was home from class to show off what she had learned (but had not done during class)! This time around... what a difference! She listened to the teacher and tried very hard to do what the teacher showed them to do. She came home and showed off her skills and was excited to go back the next week! She's already asking about when she gets to dance on a stage and wear a costume! Look out Broadway!
